We were happy to host Piero Bello De Lillo through the Summer Undergraduate Research in the Environmental Sciences (SURES) program. Visiting from the Dominican Republic, Piero is currently working with us at Yale on our project on the physiological diversity of Caribbean rain frogs (genus Eleutherodactylus). He is gaining experience in molecular and evolutionary techniques, including DNA extraction, sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis. He will also be participating in fieldwork in the Dominican Republic, where he will help collect ecological, behavioral, and environmental data and assist with physiological measurements such as water loss, metabolic rate, and heat tolerance.
It has been great having Piero in the lab, and we really appreciate his contributions and enthusiasm so far.
