UW Biology - Faculty mini-symposium
The University of Washington Biology Department kicked off the new academic year's seminar series with a Faculty mini-symposium
. This consisted of 4 departmental faculty taking 15 minutes each to present their current research; four talks for the price of one, in a sense, and I even got bonus free hand cramps because I think I took about as many notes for each as I do in a lot of hour-long presentations.
I'll write a separate post about each presentation, and then edit this post to link to all of them (and probably change the timestamp so it appears on top).
Update: writing all that up took me longer than intended because there was a trip to Bloomington in the middle and I had things I wanted to finish before going. It's now done, and these were the talks:
- Jennifer Nemhauser - Quite contrary models of how gardens grow
- Christian Sidor - New fossils from the center of Pangea
- Janneke Hille Ris Landers - The response of plant communities to climate change
- Benjamin Kerr - A Migratory Solution to a Tragedy of the Commons in a host-pathogen metapopulation
