Join Holly Vander Stel from the Evans Lab at KBS to explore the role of people that help with research. Learn about what goes on behind the scenes to collect field and laboratory data used to answer our questions in ecology. Holly will describe how she asks the question, “how do we actually DO the science”, and how scientists like Holly help researchers go from the initial question to a ready to analyze data set.

Exploring with Scientists is a FREE program, but registration is required.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

Exploring with Scientists is an online series that connects upper elementary and middle school students with graduate students conducting ecological research at the Kellogg Biological Station. Each of the six programs will focus on a certain type of animal or insect and touch on how scientists collect data in the field. Participants will be able to submit questions related to natural history, research and science careers.
