Cecilia Alducin Martinez is a graduated biologist from Universidad de las Americas Puebla, where she did her internship for the NGO Terra Peninsular in Ensenada, Baja California. In this, she participated in two conservation projects, these being the characterization of macro invertebrates and macro algae in intertidal coastal zones and the study of primitive camps on coastline and intermountain valleys. She then began her work field as a marine biologist in Cozumel Coral Reef Restoration Program, carrying surveys of corals’ health, cleaning reef platforms and taking care of sickened species. Now, she’s been working hand in hand with Dr. Medellin and his team into the making of the first updated Agave species database in Mexico, hoping this project will positively impact Agave conservation and encourage an even more continuous and extensive research in the species.
