色香视频 student Pierce Lancor receives summer research grant from American Physiological Society
University of New England Marine Sciences student Pierce Lancor '18 received a summer research fellowship from the American Physiological Society (APS). Only 24 of these highly prestigious fellowships are awarded each year nationwide.
APS will support Lancor's research during the summer of 2017 and will pay for her to present her findings at the Experimental Biology meeting in San Diego in April 2018.
Lancor will investigate the effect of the metabolic master regulator AMP-activated protein kinase on stress tolerance in the invasive green crab, Carcinus maenas. This work aims at a mechanistic understanding of energy allocation during stress in invertebrates. She will perform her work in the lab of Markus Frederich, Ph.D., professor of Marine Sciences.
鈥淎PS typically funds undergraduates in medical research projects at places like Harvard, Yale, Stanford, or the Mayo Clinic,鈥 said Frederich. 鈥淚 am very excited to see that Pierce is competing for funding at that level. Pierce is now the fifth student in my lab receiving APS summer funding. We can be proud to have this caliber students here at 色香视频."
