Press Herald interviews Ed Bilsky for a business story on Marine Ecological Habitats

Edward Bilsky, Ph.D., associate provost for research and scholarship, was interviewed for an Oct. 17, 2011 Portland Press Herald story on Marine Ecological Habitats, a Biddeford company that custom builds aquariums. Bilsky, who  invited the business's owner, Joe Zucchero, to speak during a summer internship program at UNE this past summer, attributed the business's success to its willingness to work with customers and venture into different offerings. 

Bilsky, who is also a professor of pharmacology, College of Osteopathic Medicine, has worked with Zucchero in the past to create supplies for the university's research laboratories. A student in the summer internship program developed a marketing plan for the company to possibly venture into producing more materials for biotechnical research. The story also appeared in the Morning Sentinel (Waterville).
