I also help manage the lab\u2019s datasets for reporting HABs to state and federal management agencies. At the completion of my Bachelors of Science in Biology, I will enter the Biology graduate program with Dr. Gloria Massamba N\u2019Siala, here at ODU, to research marine annelids. After my master\u2019s, I hope to become a researcher at NOAA so I can have the opportunity to assist in conservation efforts in different ecosystems around the world. My hobbies include hanging out with my dogs and cats, paddleboarding, and scuba diving whenever I get the chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-1-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"209\" height=\"277\" data-id=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-1-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-1-3.jpg 209w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-1-3-145x192.jpg 145w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 209px) 100vw, 209px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"369\" height=\"276\" data-id=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-2.jpg 369w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-2-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1267\/2023\/03\/Abby-2-192x144.jpg 192w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 369px) 100vw, 369px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am a 4th year Biology undergraduate student with a Marine Biology concentration, and I will be graduating in the Spring of 2023.\u00a0 I began working at the Phytoplankton Analysis Laboratory in August of 2021 as a Lab Technician where I am responsible for the taxonomic enumerations of phytoplankton and potentially toxigenic shellfish harmful algal &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/abigail-ethridge\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Abigail Ethridge<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1831,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/798"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1831"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=798"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/798\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":801,"href":"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/798\/revisions\/801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/mulhollandLab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=798"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
