Listen to Hazel Sive, Dean of the College of Science, as she talks to Randall Hughes, Professor of Marine & Environmental Sciences, about the innovative research at the Hughes Lab of Marine Biodiversity and Conservation.. Professor Hughes wants to know what causes and consequences of biodiversity within and across species – especially in marine and estuarine systems. These systems have strong experimental tradition in these systems and the important ecosystem services they provide to humans.
