Lab Members Presented At ESA / by Kelsey McGurrin

In very exciting news, the first presentations from (non-eponymous) Burghardt lab members hit the wide world in August at the Ecological Society for America National meeting. Max and Kelsey produced posters showcasing work within the BiodiversiTREE and BeanDIP projects respectively. We are very proud of the progress they are making. Check out their work below!
