IRLAP and FOSI are excited to welcome to Dre Bain as our 2025 summer intern! Dre will be working on IRLAP’s oyster research project in the Indian River Lagoon and helping with all manner of field work such as banding American oystercatchers.
“My name is Dre Bain, and I am a Biology major currently attending IRSC. I have always been into all the sciences, but I believe I’ve found my true passion in Research Ecology/Conservation Biology. I feel most at home in nature, tending to animals, plants, and all sorts of nature. I hope to continue to learn and grow while standing on the shoulders of the great researchers that precede me.”
