And the poster prizes go to…
Zach Miller, Ph.D. candidate, and Jessica Middlemis-Brown, Ph.D. student, are the winners of the Young Scientists Symposium poster session.

 

Miller’s topic was “The diversity of fungal pathogens infecting host plant species as a function of plant species range and morphology: phylogenetic independence and the pace of community assembly.” Middlemis-Brown’s research topic was “Density-dependence in the terrestrial stage of the wood frog, Rana sylvatica.” The symposium speakers judged the contest. The awards are $1,000 for the candidate, $500 for the student, to help with research-related expenses.
