Dr. Nick Geist and Grad Student Madison Stein at Northwestern Pond Turtle Symposium
Field work for the Geist Lab is underway out in Alameda County (they've already found turtle nests this week 🐢🐢): Prof. Nicholas Geist and Grad Student Madison Stein spoke at the Northwestern Pond Turtle Symposium in Berkeley last Thursday. Dr. Geist was asked to give an hour-long introduction to all the attendees (officials from the US Dept. of Fish & Wildlife, CA DFW, Dept of Agriculture NRCS, and many, many more agencies, both local zoos, and reps from several nearby universities), and Madie presented her research on finding pond turtle nests. Way to represent!
