NOAA-EPP LMRCSC Master’s Graduate<\/strong>
M.S., Fisheries Sciences<\/em>
Delaware State University<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juan Ramos earned his Master’s degree in Fisheries Sciences from Delaware State University in May 2025. His research focused on the blue crab (Callinectes sapidus<\/em>), its population characteristics, and its relationship to ongoing oyster restoration and oyster aquaculture activities in Delaware’s Rehoboth Bay. As part of this research, he is investigated the prevalence of the pathogenic and fatal virus, Callinectes sapidus<\/em> Reovirus 1 (CsRV1), in the blue crabs of Delaware Inland Bays. By understanding the population characteristics and monitoring pathogenic virus in his thesis research, he hopes to improve the sustainability of shellfish in Delaware and surrounding states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He previously received a B.S. in Aquaculture and Fisheries from University of Arkansas Pine Bluff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juan’s goal is to pursue a Ph.D. at a minority-serving institution. He hopes to ultimately build his career at NOAA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
