Senior🎓
Top SchoolJacob Green is a PhD candidate and Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of Rhode Island with nine years of experience bridging marine biology, genomics, and bioinformatics to study molecular responses to environmental stressors like hypoxia, acidification, and thermal change. He designs and instructs core courses in evolution, marine biology, and biomedical research while leading a de novo exome sequencing project (EecSeq) for non-model organisms in the Puritz Lab. Beyond the bench and classroom, Jacob has negotiated graduate contracts, coordinated education programs, and facilitated mentoring training—demonstrating a commitment to advocacy and community leadership alongside scientific inquiry. His background in molecular biology, evolutionary ecology, and computational biology uniquely positions him to translate genomic data into conservation and epidemiological insights for marine systems. An educator at heart, he actively builds curricula and mentoring frameworks to prepare the next generation of interdisciplinary scientists.
