GPMB Research Colloquium

The 2022 GPMB Research Colloquium was held on Saturday, October 14th at Grice Marine Lab.

The Keynote Speaker is Dr. Goldbogen. He is an associate professor at Stanford University and Co-Director of the Hopkins Marine Station. His cutting-edge research includes the energetics, foraging ecology, and biomechanics of baleen whales and other marine species. As an undergraduate student, his first REU experience was at the College of Charleston. We’re excited to welcome him back!

We are looking forward to the 2022 Research Colloquium!

The GPMB Student Research Colloquium is an annual event that is open to the public, followed by one of our most important socials of the year -- the GPMB Low Country Boil. The goals of the colloquium include:

• increase awareness of ongoing marine biological research by GPMB and MES students,

• give students experience with formal scientific presentations,

• introduce new graduate students to research opportunities in marine biology, and

• promote interaction among faculty and students.

All GPMB students (excluding incoming students) are expected to present their research (or proposed research) in the Colloquium in the form of a poster or oral presentation. MES students conducting research in marine biology are also invited to participate. Priority for oral presentations will be given to Marine Biology students who have at least preliminary data to present. Marine biology students are expected to give at least one oral presentation in the Colloquium before graduation, if possible.
