2009 NSF fellowship awarded to Marvin
The National Science Foundation has awarded EEB graduate student David Marvin a 2009 Graduate Research Fellowship beginning fall 2009. Marvin will investigate the growth response of north temperate and neotropical lianas (woody climbing vines) to elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide under forest gap and non-gap light levels.
The award is based on the recipient’s abilities and accomplishments as well as potential to contribute to strengthening the vitality of the U.S. science and engineering enterprise. The fellowship provides three years of support including tuition and a $30,000 annual stipend.
