ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ Science Scholar McClaran Shirley β22 studies the effect of ocean acidification on marine gastropods, or sea snails.
Biology major McClaran Shirley β22 was named a 2021-22 ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ Science Scholar and received a scholarship from the Kenneth T. and Eileen L. Norris foundation to continue marine biology research. In this video, she describes her work with Assistant Professor of Biology Amber Stubler on a project entitled βGastropods Utilizing the Cosman Shell Collection,β a study of ocean acidification on marine gastropods, or sea snails, that she began last year using ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅βs Cosman Shell Collection, remarkable not only for its size and international scope but for its detailed documentation.
