Roger conducted fisheries and aquaculture research for more than 20 years at the University of Florida, producing numerous scientific journal and outreach publications and videos. This scholarship recognizes outstanding students enrolled in Florida universities and colleges. Two scholarships are awarded each year: one at the Masters level and one at the PhD level.
