Brittany is an undergraduate Biology major. She started working in the Hoffman lab the summer before her junior year. Her current project focuses on an invasive Barnacle species, Megabalanus coccapoma, which has invaded coastlines all around the globe. The project intends to compare genetic variation between native populations from South America and invasive populations from Florida by examining Microsatellites. After graduating from UCF Brittany hopes to continue on to Graduate school and pursue a career in Genetics research.
