Congrats to Becky on her promotion to full professor, which was just announced! Becky has risen to the top of the critically important field of coral biology and was appointed the Pernot Distinguished Professor ahead of her promotion to full professor, an unusual accomplishment that recognizes her outstanding performance. She continues to teach and mentor a large numbers of students while maintaining active field research programs at locations around the world. Good luck Becky on your next adventure! We are proud to have you representing OSU and the Department of Microbiology.
