"Peter Roopnarine"Bio:
Raised in the Caribbean, in Jamaica and Trinidad. Earned a B.Sc. in Biology, conducting research on sea stars, at Mt. Allison University in New Brunswick, Canada. Completed a Masters in Oceanography at Nova University Oceanographic Center in Davie, Florida, conducting research on littorine gastropods. Earned a Ph.D. in Geology, concentration in paleontology, at University of California Davis, working on tropical American marine bivalves. I pretty much now work on a lot of different things, most notably food web dynamics, molluscan geochemistry, and molluscan evolution.
