Most of the work explores anaerobic carbon cycling in wetland ecosystems, ranging from northern peatlands to coastal salt marshes. Undergraduate collaborators are heavily involved in this research and gain first-hand experience in conducting and presenting scientific research. He branded his lab members as Swamp Monsters due to their research in swamp-like places.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13762\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13762\" style=\"width: 580px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13762\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/scst\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2019\/06\/UCISwampMonsters1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"580\" height=\"435\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13762\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kristin Gabriel (left), Emily Hanna (center), Ari Jong (right)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Dr. Keller connected these three alumnae when he learned they were all attending graduate programs at the University of California, Irvine (UCI).<\/p>\n<p>At Chapman, Ari Jong \u201916 was an environmental science and policy major. She is now working on her Masters in Environmental Engineering. Emily Hanna \u201918 was a biological sciences major, and following graduation started her Masters of Public Health. Kristin Gabriel \u201916 majored in biochemistry and molecular biology, with a minor in environmental science and policy. She is now, as Dr. Keller says, \u201ccrushing\u201d her Ph.D. in Molecular Biology.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We sat down with Kristin Gabriel to learn how her experience working as a Swamp Monster helped her to pursue her Ph.D. at UCI.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How did you get involved with the Swamp Monsters during your time at Chapman?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I got involved with the Swamp Monsters during my freshman year at Chapman. I assisted Kylle Roy, a senior, on a marsh organ project exploring the effects of sea level rise on microbial respiration at Brookhurst Marsh in Huntington Beach, California.&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q: What was your experience like being a part of the Swamp Monsters? Do you have a favorite memory?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>My experience being a part of the Swamp Monsters was an awesome opportunity to have as an undergraduate. I enjoyed taking the lead on a project exploring the role of water-table level on humic substance reduction in northern peatland soils. In order to perform this work, I engineered an apparatus to collect soils anaerobically and developed a novel research technique. My favorite memory was presenting a poster on this work at the Society of Wetland Scientists Meeting in Providence, Rhode Island.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q: What skills did you take away from that experience?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>As a Swamp Monster, I learned how to communicate my research in peer-reviewed journals and conferences to promote scientific literacy in the community. Our findings showed that the water-table level can be an important control on the suppression of methane production in wetlands resulted in my first author publication! I also learned how to think creatively about science and gained a broad-based training, in topics from ecosystem ecology to biochemistry, that allow me to pursue my Ph.D. research with an interdisciplinary perspective.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q: What led you to choose your current program at UCI?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I was drawn to the Cellular and Molecular Biosciences program at UCI because it\u2019s an environment with expert researchers and cutting-edge laboratory techniques that encourages students to become superior scientists, researchers, and public leaders.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q: What advice would you give to current students who might be considering a graduate program after college?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I would recommend current students who might be considering a graduate program after college to seek guidance from faculty mentors. While I was at Chapman University, the guidance I received from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/our-faculty\/jason-keller\">Dr. Jason Keller<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/our-faculty\/marco-bisoffi\">Dr. Marco Bisoffi<\/a>, and Dr. Milton Greenberg opened my eyes to all the options of graduate school.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alumni Spotlight: Swamp Monster Alumna Kristin Gabriel \\&#8217;16<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1225,"featured_media":7965,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"custom_author_name":"","chapman_pin_hero_slider":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[10],"class_list":["post-7963","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-alumni","tag-environmental-science-and-policy"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 -
