ENVIRONMENTAL EPIGENETICS

Our research cannot be understood without a very strong educational mission. We strive to transform the future through educational, mentorship, and outreach opportunities inspiring the next generation of Marine Biologists. Over the last decade, we have published more than 70 peer-reviewed papers, funded our research through external grants, mentored Ph.D. and M.S. students and taught thousands of undergraduate students... We are pioneering the development of epigenetic toolkits in non model organisms, paving the way for expanding environmental epigenetic analyses and their application to management and conservation of diverse ecologically and commercially relevant species... The Eirin-Lopez Environmental Epigenetics Lab is part of the Institute of Environment, a preeminent program at Florida International University.
