We are so proud of our two Biology majors who presented posters at the Summer Science Research Program Symposium last Friday. Amber Jewell discussed her work on the hyperdiverse rove beetles, with a focus on local diversity. Addison Smith shared her study of the effects of temperature on activity of the Culex pipiens mosquito complex. Nice work, ladies! (Photo credits: Sarah Fantin and Hannah Hughes).
