Theresa M. Davenport, Ph.D.

UPDATE April 2023: Thanks to all who applied to work with me on the blue crab habitat choice experiment!
I have now selected candidates, so applications are now closed.

Dr. Theresa Davenport is looking for an undergraduate researcher to run a tank experiment to look at the habitat preferences of Blue crabs, among two types of submerged vegetation and oysters. The funding source requires a written report at its conclusion, so I am looking for a student interested in gaining experience with the scientific process, from experimental setup to report writing. This will be a full-time summer opportunity with the possibility of an extension. I would like to fill the position ASAP but expect that the student would likely start with us after finals week.
