The @mammalmeetings.bsky.social meeting wrapped up last week. I have a well-attended talk on teaching, co-facilitated a workshop with other @stemsquirrels.bsky.social folks, attended workshops and talks, and with old and new friends. I’m also terrible at remembering to get pics with folks…

I’m super behind on lab updates! In March we attended the joint meeting of Kansas Academy of Science and the Central States Entomological Society. Grad student Patrick presented his proposed research project and undergrads Emily and Chad gave talks. Chad won best undergrad talk!
