Ichthyology student Katie Schmidt is currently aboard the Research Vessel Point Sur, helping a team of scientists study deep sea animals of Monterey Bay.  The team includes Dr. Jeff Drazen from the University of Hawaii, and Michelle Kay, a school teacher who is keeping a ship-board blog about life on a research cruise.   Check out her blog for great pictures of trawls full of deep-sea fish and invertebrates, as well as some cool underwater camera shots!
