Trinity Conn is a graduate student in the biology student and is broadly interested in the various adaptive mechanisms reef-building corals have to adapt to the changing climate, and how we can leverage natural adaptive variation to assist in restoration efforts. She did her undergraduate degree at the University of Miami where she studied coral-algal symbiosis, and worked in a public facing lab educating the Miami public on the effects of climate change and reef decline on their daily lives.
