Abstract

Ben Gordon studied the effects of environmental stress on the metabolome of reef-building corals. His research produced the first extraction and analysis protocol for coral metabolomics and identified machine learning methods to classify the functional state of corals under a variety of conditions. His work has provided novel biomarkers of coral health and directions for implementing metabolomics biomonitoring.
