Student Lunch featuring...

*Dr. Tara Stewart Merrill, *Aquatic Disease Ecologist, Cary Institute of
Ecosystem Studies


Tara is an Aquatic Disease Ecologist at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem
Studies. She completed her PhD at the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign and conducted a Life Sciences Research Foundation
postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Colorado Boulder. In 2008,
Tara left a promising career in ballet and modern dance to pursue her
interests in parasites and infectious diseases. Working in aquatic
ecosystems—from keystone zooplankton in lakes, to amphibian communities in
ponds, to broader food webs in freshwater and marine systems—Tara is
exploring how parasitism adds to, or even transforms, our understanding of
ecological processes.


*Open to all students*
