During this year's Society of Integrative and Comparative Biology (SICB) Conference, Whitney scientist and Associate Professor of Biology Dr. Christine Schnitzler was interviewed about her career path. Her journey was recently published in the Integrative and Comparative Biology blog post: Diving into Discovery: A Researcher’s Journey in Marine Biology, Regeneration and Evolution by Lisa Mesrop, scientist/blogger, at UCSB (Oakley lab).
From glowing anemones to regenerating hydroids, Dr. Christine Schnitzler‘s research proves that when it comes to marine biology, the brightest ideas often come from the darkest depths. Marine invertebrates present a fascinating display of evolutionary innovations, including bioluminescence, fluorescence, regeneration, and intricate symbiotic relationships. The journey of Dr. Schnitzler’s research highlights both the scientific and personal challenges faced by a scientist dedicated to uncovering the mysteries of marine life.
