Background
Serena has focused primarily on conservation and research. She worked in the marine mammal division at the New England Aquarium, fisheries conservation with NOAA, and gene identification and analysis in several academic research laboratories. As a member of the UCONN Biology Department, she started teaching undergraduate Biology Lab and has continued that course here at Colby College.
