- Title Class of 2015
Athbah grew up on the coast of Dubai where she gained an appreciation for marine life. Some of her earliest memories are of collecting shells before going to school and watching sea turtles hatch under the full moon. Before joining the Buston Lab, she gained experience with maintaining and developing habitats for animals in wildlife sanctuaries. In the lab she took on a project investigating the effect of variation in photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) on the survival, growth and reproduction of sea anemones.
