Thank you for your interest in my work!
It truly takes a village to make science happen. If you are interested in making a donation in support of my research, please consider using the form below to make a one-time or recurring donation.
Why Donate? Your support fuels research on marine ecosystems and their responses to environmental changes. Donations directly fund essential research activities, including fieldwork, laboratory experiments, and the dissemination of findings. By contributing, you're helping to advance scientific understanding and also supporting small island economies – I collaborate directly with local fishers for boat charters, providing alternative income and reducing pressure on fragile reef ecosystems.
How Your Donation Helps:
Field Research: Travel and logistics to remote locations to collect critical data.
Lab Analysis: Advanced molecular tools and DNA sequencing can help disentangle complex ecological interactions.
Technology and Equipment: Gear for experiments and data collection.
Community Partners: Workshops and educational programs to involve local communities in conservation efforts.
Your Impact: Every donation, no matter the size, makes a significant difference. If you would like your donation to go to a specific project or goal, please contact mayazeff@ucsc.edu and let me know! I really appreciate your interest and would love to talk with you about how you can meaningfully contribute to understanding and protecting our oceans
