Investing in science isinvesting in innovation

My science journey began here in San Mateo County, inspired by the beauty of our regional parks, our local educators and STEM opportunities. Today, with support from the National Science Foundation, I study how oyster genetics influence environmental resilience. This research aids conservation and supports a $186 million aquaculture industry.

But this work is at risk.
