ANTHONY HAS MORE.
>> GLOUCESTER HARBOR IS PRETTY AND GRITTY.
CENTER OF THE CITY FISHING COMMUNITY, IT IS GROUND ZERO FOR THE PUSH TO KEEP THE PART A WORKING WATERFRONT AND THE HUB OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITY AND JOBS.
>> GLOUCESTER HAS BEEN TRANSITIONING, WE HAVE TO PLAY THE CARDS WE ARE DEALT.
WE ALWAYS FIND A WAY TO CONTINUE OUR WORKING WATERFRONT.
IT HAS CHANGED SHAPES OVER THE YEARS.
BUT IT IS DEFINITELY HUNG TRUE TO WHO WE ARE DEEP DOWN INSIDE.
>> AND MALLOY AND HER FAMILY HAVE PLAYED A MAJOR PART IN THE EVOLUTION OF GLOUCESTER HARBOR.
MALLOY’S GRANDFATHER STARTED IN THE 1920’S WITH THE PROGRESSIVE FISH COMPANY.
>> THE BANKER SAID, LEO, YOUR PROGRESS OF BUYING A FISH COMPANY DURING THE DEPRESSION.
THOUGH HE NAMED IT PROGRESSIVE FISH COMPANY.
HE ALSO STARTED SELLING OIL TO THE FISHING BOATS.
HE REALIZED HE WAS MAKING MORE MONEY SELLING OIL TO THE BOAT THAN FISH, SO HE DECIDED TO GO INTO THE HOME HEATING OIL BUSINESS.
>> THAT’S WHEN MALLOY’S FATHER AND UNCLE BOUGHT THE OPERATION AND CHANGED THE NAME TO OCEAN CREST SEAFOOD IN 19 625.
>> OCEAN CREST UNLOADS A OF FISHING, FILLETS THE FISH AND SELLS FILLETS TO LOCAL RESTAURANTS.
>> IN THE 1980’S, THE FAMILY INADVERTENT HE ENDED UP IN THE FERTILIZER BUSINESS.
>> MY FATHER SAID WE ARE ONLY SELLING 30% OF THE FISH.
60% IS LEFT OVER.
MAYBE IF WE USE 100%, WE CAN KEEP EVERYBODY IN THE FAMILY AND OUR EMPLOYEES AND BUSINESS.
SO WE GOT TOGETHER WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS MARINE STATION PEERED THEY HELPED US DEVELOP A PROCESS TO TURN ALL THE FISH REMAINS INTO FERTILIZER.
>> AND NEPTUNE’S HARVEST WAS BORN ON GLOUCESTER’S WATERFRONT.
THE ORGANIC FERTILIZER IS SOLD TO FARMS AND HOME GARDENERS WORLDWIDE.
>> IS GROWING IMMENSELY.
WE CANNOT KEEP UP.
IT IS HARD TO GET ENOUGH GURRY TO MAKE ENOUGH FERTILIZER TO KEEP UP WITH THE DEMAND.
WE WANT TO DOUBLE OUR PRODUCTION.
THE LOBSTER MEN ARE HAVING HARD TIME GETTING ENOUGH BAIT.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE AMBITION AND INGENUITY.
I LIKE TO SAY IT TAKES GUTS TO MAKE TUNES HARVEST.
IT DID.
IT THAT’S FOR HIM TO SPEND THAT MONEY AND EXPAND INTO SOMETHING THAT WAS AN UNKNOWN.
>> NEARBY, INNOVATION IS A CORE QUALITY OF GMGI, A RESEARCH INSTITUTE.
>> THE MISSION IS ONE OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, TO BUILD A CUTTING EDGE BIOTECHNOLOGY INSTITUTE THAT PROVIDES ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES TO THE REGION.
AND TO BUILD ON 400 YEARS OF MARITIME HISTORY, TO BRING CUTTING EDGE GENOMIC TECHNOLOGIES TO THE OCEAN FOR DISCOVERY.
>> SCIENTISTS ARE WORKING TO UNLOCK THE SECRETS TO THE LONGEVITY OF SEA URCHINS, SOME OF WHOM LIVE PAST 200 YEARS WITHOUT SHOWING SIGNS OF AGING, AND WITH FEW CASES OF CANCER.
>> WE HOPE THEY CAN PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT PATHWAYS TO KEEP CELLS AND TISSUES HEALTHY, SO WE CAN PERHAPS POINT US IN THE DIRECTION OF PREVENTATIVE OR THERAPEUTIC STRATEGIES FOR AGE
RELATED DEGENERATIVE DISEASES.
>> TRAINING THE NEXT GENERATION OF MARINE SCIENTISTS, ESPECIALLY LOCAL ONES, IS PART OF GMGI’S MISSION THROUGH THEIR BIOTECH AND KNOLOGY ACADEMY.
-- BOW TECHNOLOGY ACADEMY.
>> -- BIOTECHNOLOGY ACADEMY.
>> THE NINE-MONTH PROGRAM, THE FIRST SIX MONTHS THE STUDENTS LEARN THE TECHNICAL AND CAREER SKILLS THEY NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN AN INDUSTRY LAB.
IF THEY COMPLETE THAT FIRST SIX MONTHS, THE FINAL THREE MONTHS OF THE PROGRAM THEY ARE INVITED TO PARTAKE IN A PAID INTERNSHIP WITH A LOCAL BIOTECH COMPANY.
>> WE ARE USING HUMAN HEMOGLOBIN.
>> RECENT ACADEMY GRADUATE BRITTANY LANDED A FULL-TIME JOB AT A CAME BIOTECH COMPANY.
>> I WORK IN OPERATIONS AND KEEP THE LAB RUNNING.
I MAKE SOLUTIONS, MEDIA, FREE STOCK OF THE LAB.
HELP SCIENTISTS WITH ARTS PERMITS.
>> NELSON CREDITS THE ACADEMY WITH STEERING HER IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
-- WITH THEIR EXPERIMENTS.
>> AND HEISE COLLECTED NOT TAKE MANY SCIENCE COURSES.
I FIGURED I WOULD GIVE THIS A SHOT THE FIRST WEEK, I FIGURED THIS IS INTERESTING AND I WANT TO KNOW MORE.
>> SHE NOW HOPES TO COMPLETE PURSUE A BACHELOR’S DEGREE IN BIOLOGY AND MOVE UP THE RANKS.
>> YOU CAN DO ANYTHING AS LONG AS YOU’RE MOTIVATED AND WANT TO BETTER YOURSELF.
THIS IS THE PROGRAM.
THEY FOCUS ON YOU AND HELPING YOU GROW.
NATALIE IS A LAB TECH, BUT AS A PERSON.
-- NOT ONLY AS A TECHNICIAN BUT AS A PERSON.
>> GMGI TELLS US 80% OF THE GRADUATES FROM 2019 ARE IN FULL-TIME JOBS, INTERNSHIPS OR IN COLLEGE.
THE CLASS OF 2020 IS SET TO BEGIN SEPTEMBER 30.
NEPTUNE’S HARVEST -- SEPTEMBER 3.
NEPTUNE’S HARVEST SAYS THE FERTIL
