University, where he chaired the Department of Pediatrics from 1 976 to 1 992. Dr. Katz's
research interests include mechanisms of latency of neurotrophic viruses, relationship
between malnutrition and infection, and diarrhea! disease. Dr. Katz is a member of the
Institute of Medicine.
Nancy Marcus received a Ph.D. in biology from Yale University in ~ 976. She currently
serves as director of the Florida State University Marine Laboratory and is a professor in
the Department of Oceanography. Dr. Marcus' research interests include evolution,
ecology, population genetics of marine zooplarlkton, and dormancy. She is currently a
member of the Ocean Studies Board.
Shirley Pomponi earned her Ph.D. in biological oceanography from the University of
Miami, RSMAS, in ~ 977. For the past four years she has led the Harbor Branch
Oceanographic Institution's Division of Biomedical Marine Research in the discovery of
novel, mar~ne-derived, biologically-active compounds with therapeutic potential. The
major emphasis of her research is on the development of methods for sustainable use of
marine resources for drug discovery and development.
Peter Rhines received his Ph.D. in oceanography at Trinity College, Cambridge
University, in ~ 967. Dr. Rhines currently serves as a professor of oceanography and
atmospheric sciences at the University of Washington. His research interests include the
ocean/atmosphere general circulation, climate change, and the motion of trace chemicals.
He has a field program in the Labrador Sea, as well as maintaining a grophysical fluid
dynamics laboratory and computer modeling. Dr. Rhines is a member of the National
Academy of Sciences.
Patricia Tester earned a Ph.D. in oceanography at Oregon State University in ~ 983. She
serves as a research fishery biologist for the National Marine Fisheries Service. Dr.
Tester's interests include the effect of climatology, circulation, and water column
conditions on the initiation, growth and transport of phytoplanlcton blooms.
John Vena earned his Ph.D. in epidemiology from the State University of New York in
1980. He serves as associate chairman and professor for the Department of Social and
Preventive Medicine at the University at Buffalo, School of Medicine and Biomedical
Sciences. Dr. Vena has a wide variety of research interests in Environmental
Epidemiology, which have included risk perception, and the Impact of consumption of
contaminated fish on reproductive health.
NRC Staff:
