Graduate student Erin Graham attended the 7th ISS Congress in Krakow Poland (July 2012). She presented her research on the symbiotic relationship between eggs/larvae of the spotted salamander, Ambystoma maculatum, and the flagellated green alga, Oophila amblystomatis. In addition, Congress organizers asked her to participate in a Symposium on Symbiosis Education where she presents the salamander/alga mutualism as an innovative curriculum activity.
