I am currently an undergraduate student at UC San Diego majoring in Environmental Systems: Environmental Chemistry and double minoring in Computer Science and Urban Studies. Within the Deheyn lab, I have been studying the toxicity of sunscreen products on brittlestars using bioluminescence as a proxy. As the amount of sunscreen and other UV-filter containing substances increases in the ocean, particularly in coastal waters near tourist beaches, the effects on complex organisms are largely unknown and potentially harmful.
