We at the MCFF house a variety of scientific instruments for electron microscopy and materials analysis. We are proud to help many students, professors, and guests alike. Perhaps one of the more notable guests we have recently helped is Professor and published author Thomas Werner.
Thomas Werner is best known for his research and documentation of drosophilids, which are more commonly referred to as fruit flies. In his career, Werner has published three volumes (and a fourth one in the works) that delve into detail about drosophilids across North America. During his fieldwork, Werner had amazingly found a species once thought to be extinct, called Drosophila narragansett. This species had not been seen for 60 years.
