Meeting:
Our next meeting will be this September 4th at J Gilligans resturaunt in Arlington, Social hour is at 6:30 meeting starts at 7:00.
We have a special speaker this month,
Dr. Laura Mydlarz, associate dean in the College of Science at the University of Texas at Arlington, and her graduate students will share their studies in coral immunity, diseases and symbiosis.
Corals and other invertebrates must be able to defend themselves against infection, predation, competition and abiotic stressors to maintain homeostasis. Dr. Mydlarz and her team are interested in immunorecognition, signaling pathways, effector responses as well as putting immunity in the context of organismal studies, such as life-history tradeoffs and effects of the environment on immunity. Check out her lab’s website.
