Dr. Delissio received her B.S. in Biology from Tufts University where she was first introduced to tropical ecology. She then worked as a laboratory technician at M.I.T. where the C. elegans DNA she sequenced contributed to Nobel Prize-winning work on programmed cell death. She went on to complete her Ph.D. in Biology at Boston University where she studied tropical forest ecology in Malaysian Borneo with Richard Primack, one of the world's leading Conservation Biologists. She is a tenured Professor of Biology, and in this role leads the scientific research on the recently accredited F. Carroll Sargent Arboretum. Dr. Delissio serves as a consultant to screenwriters through the Science & Entertainment Exchange of the National Academy of Sciences.
