This summer, we welcomed Laura Rosario Sánchez, who is part of the Summer Undergraduate Research in the Environmental Sciences (SURES) program. She is visiting us from the Dominican Republic and is working on the physiological diversity of Caribbean rain frogs (Genus Eleutherodactylus). As part of the project, Laura will join fieldwork in the Dominican Republic, collecting ecological, behavioral, and environmental data, and assisting with physiological assays such as water loss, metabolic rate, and heat tolerance. Back at Yale, she will learn DNA extraction, sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis, gaining field, lab, and data analysis experience. We are excited to have her in the lab!
