peroxisomes in Asparagopsis and local seaweeds under different growth conditions such as temperature, light, and salinity. C. Intellectual Property Workshop (IBM Research, UCSF) At our 2023 summer retreat, 20 faculty and 44 students attended a 1-h intellectual property (IP) workshop led by four CCC IP experts, who have experience creating several startups and have dozens of issued patents. The objective was for each participant to write an invention disclosure (i.e., a document used internally to evaluate the merits of an invention to determine whether a patent

, 1 patent disclosure, and 9 presentations at national conferences (3 oral, 6 posters; 20, 21). Students have also developed activities to engage the public, including the Exploratorium’s After Dark events (San Francisco, CA) and the Estuary and Ocean Science Center’s annual Marine Lab Open House (Tiburon, CA). These outcomes illustrate the potential for this course to advance the field and provide a broad range of opportunities to all participants. A subset of these activities is described to illustrate the scope of project designs that address the CCC
