We also collect and necropsy the carcasses of dead marine mammals and provide the data to state managers, who use the information to inform management decisions and set policies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Garrett said the new facility will have more cold storage and necropsy floor space than the existing MMPL, as well as having an observation deck. \u201cMy dream is to have a viewing area that allows visitors to look down into the necropsy room, which is the best vantage point for viewing our work,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>The new facility is in the planning stage now that funding is secured, and Garrett expects the construction to take several years to fully complete. Until then, FWC will continue to operate the existing MMPL, which welcomes college students\u2014including around 20 Eckerd College students annually\u2014to volunteer and intern with the state agency. Eckerd faculty also make use of having such a resource outside their door by ushering whole classes to the current pathobiology lab to hear from employees and see wild species up close.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_content&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; top_padding=&#8221;32&#8243; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; shape_type=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;padding-5-percent&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;left-right&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; el_class=&#8221;lg_text&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text]<span class=\"accent-color\">&#8220;We work with schools all over the state, and our hope is the new building will allow us to better provide virtual access to our work, so we may continue to work with educators from anywhere,\u201d Garrett said.&#8221;<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_content&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; top_padding=&#8221;32&#8243; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; shape_type=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;right&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text]Funding for this project comes from the NFWF\u2019s Gulf Environmental Benefit Fund, which finances projects benefiting the natural resources of the Gulf Coast that were impacted by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Garrett said the relationship between the pathobiology lab and Eckerd College has always been special because it was <a href=\"\/johnreynolds\/\">the late John Reynolds, Ph.D., a former professor of marine science at the College<\/a>, who convinced the State to build the current MMPL on Eckerd property. The lab was opened in 1991, and Eckerd students began volunteering soon after. Even Garrett volunteered with the MMPL during the second semester of his senior year. That experience, along with a recommendation from Dr. Reynolds, landed Garrett a biologist position at the MMPL after graduation and springboarded his <a href=\"\/marinescience\/\">marine science<\/a> career.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving experience volunteering or interning at a state research facility like the MMPL is a pretty powerful line to have on your resume and can make a difference when applying for jobs in marine science or securing enrollment in graduate or veterinary schools,\u201d Garrett said.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":45,"featured_media":6685,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[205,37,80,68,85,86],"tags":[453,454,455],"class_list":{"0":"post-6680","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-about-eckerd","8":"category-academics","9":"category-alumni","10":"category-marine-science","11":"category-research","12":"category-student-research","13":"tag-andy-garrett","14":"tag-fwc","15":"tag-pathobiology"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.6 (Yoast SEO v27.6) -
