Anderson quoted in Cape Cod Times article on oyster symposium
Paul Anderson, director of the Maine Sea Grant College Program at the University of Maine, was quoted in a Cape Cod Times article on the 6th International Oyster Symposium held in North Falmouth, Massachusetts. At the symposium, Anderson said Maine Sea Grant is using a $20 million National Science Foundation EPSCoR (Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research) grant to hire 20 doctoral candidates and four scientists as part of a network researching sustainable aquaculture opportunities that could be used nationwide, according to the article. Maine EPSCoR at UMaine is using the grant to mobilize the collective capacity of Maine’s coastal science resources to establish a Sustainable Ecological Aquaculture Network (SEANET) program in Maine.
