Sewell Hepburn Hopkins (1906-1984), a marine biologist and Professor of Biology at Texas A & M University (1935-1972) was best known for his research into the effects of oil spills on marine life in the Gulf of Mexico. The Hopkins Papers primarily include copies of articles concerning research conducted during Research Project 9 (1947-1950), headed by Sewall Hopkins and sponsored by the Texas A & M University Research Foundation, regarding abnormally high mortality rates in oyster beds harvested by Louisiana oystermen. One of at least four major research projects initiated as a result of lawsuits filed in 1946 by Louisiana oystermen against major oil companies active in offshore drilling in the Gulf Mexico, Project 9 resulted in the identification and published description (1950) of a newly discovered parasite called . The lawsuits against the oil companies were subsequently dropped or settled out of court. Hopkins was a Texas A & M Professor Emeritus until his death in Nov. 1984.
