NERRA is grateful to our NERRS Margaret A. Davidson Graduate Research Fellows and the important work they do on behalf of coastal environments and communities. Reserves are ideal places for next generation scientists to gain experience, work with mentors, and forge the connections needed to launch a career focused on the biggest coastal challenges we face today.
Thank you, Congress, for making these experiences possible—we know they’ll pay it forward.
Applications are now open for the next cohort of Margaret A. Davidson Fellows!
