Day 1 saw us crossing our arms in contemplation, and listening intently to one another, as we brainstormed future research directions across disciplines. The day concluded with a celebration of our new Community Streams Podcast (more on that coming soon!). 2/4

Last month, MSP LTER students, postdocs, staff, faculty, and other researchers gathered for our annual two-day Summer Symposium. In a break from our typical format, we gathered as a smaller group to reflect on where we have been and where we would like to go as an urban ecological research site. 1/4
