ECS students volunteering at the Fargo 2024 Red River Boo at the Zoo!
Join me us congratulating Jordan Dahl (ECS Ph.D. Candidate) for winning a prestigious award from the Geological Society of America meeting for 3rd place for Best Student Map.
NDSU ECS apparel is officially available for a limited time. Grab your swag before September 30th using the link below! shirtsfromfargo.com/organizations/…
As classes begin, we're spotlighting Diana Vargas-Hernandez, a Biological Sciences grad student. She researches fungi to combat a coffee pathogen. Growing up in a family of small coffee farmers, Diana is committed to finding sustainable solutions for farmers like her family.
Congrats Steve, Josie, and Trinity on all your hard work. Check out their project!!! abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/r…
Happy Monday! Today, we spotlight Alec Christensen, an ECS student at NDSU's School of Natural Resources. His research uses genomics and landscape genetic tools to assess different management strategies for chronic wasting disease in white-tailed deer. Great work, Alec!
Another Tuesday, another grad student shoutout! Today we're recognizing Taylor Aliferis from NDSU's Biological Sciences Department. Taylor studies how Red-winged Blackbirds respond to drones of different sizes and speeds, aiming to improve drone monitoring and hazing practices.
Happy Tuesday! Today we recognize Molly Johnson, a dedicated ECS MS student at NDSU. She studies fish behavior, focusing on the predator naïveté hypothesis in desert fishes like the Pahrump poolfish and Moapa White River springfish, aiming to aid conservation efforts.
Today we recognize Katlyn Balstad, an ECS MS student at NDSU's Plant Sciences department. Her research uses cultivar selection, germination, and abiotic stress to increase phenolic compounds in corn and soybeans for post-production health benefits. Keep up the great work, Katlyn!
We're officially revamping our ECS social media pages! Here is the new NDSU ECS Facebook group. It will be a great source for staying caught up in social and volunteering events, as well as our current grad student research advancements facebook.com/share/TF7JYrUp…
