- .My research group's primary
interests are in the ecology and
epidemiology of parasites and pathogens
of marine organisms, marine aquaculture,
and marine stock enhancement.
- Our funded marine aquaculture
research is on shrimp (primarily
Litopenaeus vannamei) and red snapper
(Lutjanus campechanus). Our goals
are to develop and refine low-water-use,
low-discharge technology to support
the development of a U.S. marine
shrimp culture industry
