The DNA will be used to determine chelonian herpesvirus infection rates & viral loads + identify turtle immune genes (MHC I & II). The project is supported by the #SeaTurtleGrantsProgram, which is funded w/ proceeds from the sale of the Florida #SeaTurtleLicensePlate.

Hurricanes have added challenges to the #UCFTurtleLab’s late-season work, but extra surveys & nests marked for Yr 2 #SeaTurtleGrantsProgram award (funded by #SeaTurtleLicensePlate) have helped better assess nest loss from storms + viability & incubation of late-season nests.

Project Update #1: I collected all of my #seaturtle blood samples from our #FL nesting beach, #ACNWR (n=240)! Next up: evaluate proteins, biochemistry, & white blood cells to compare to 🐢 & environ. data Funding: #SeaTurtleGrantsProgram & #SeaTurtleLicensePlates (MTP-171)

Oddly excited and proud of an inanimate object! Can’t wait to fill my new freezer with blood samples 🩸🐢 (funding in part from the #SeaTurtleGrantsProgram and @UCFGradStudies Doctoral Research Support Award) @UCFTurtleLab @erin_seney

Research Update! I collected blood samples from nesting green & loggerhead #seaturtles to begin to connect sea turtle #health & #ecology-funded by the #SeaTurtleGrantsProgram ($: sale of the FL #SeaTurtleLicensePlates!) Stay tuned for the results! @UCFTurtleLab @erin_seney
