Remillard J and Gottschalk Druschke C. 2015. A Wildlife Biologist in the Making: The Mosaics in Science program brought Reina Galvan 2,000 miles from home and one step closer to her dream
Reina Galvan is a Mosaics in Science program volunteer with the National Park Service’s Northeast Coastal and Barrier Network (NCBN) this summer. In June, she joined NCBN scientists in the salt marshes of Fire Island National Seashore (FIIS) and Sagamore Hill National Historic Site (SAHI) in New York to assist with natural resource monitoring. As a Mosaics in Science participant, Reina is one among only 24 students nationwide selected to work in parks across the U.S. this summer.
