About the Tennessee Unit
Cooperative Research Units have three facets to their mission: (1) Education, (2) Research, and (3) Technical Assistance.
The Tennessee Unit consists of 2 federal scientists and 1 administrative specialist. The Unit Leader, Dr. Jim Layzer, provides administrative oversight to all Unit activities; he is assisted by Dr, Phil Bettoli, the Assistant Unit Leader. Drs. Layzer and Bettoli both hold the rank of Professor of Biology. They both teach graduate courses, mentor graduate students, and conduct research on a wide variety of aquatic biology topics. Their research projects, funded by various federal and state agencies, typically support graduate students and post-docs.
