EcoBreak is an informal seminar designed for exchange of ideas between graduate
students and faculty in ecology, through the presentation of research, discussion,
and good company.
EcoBreaks will be held every Tuesday at 11:30am in 332 Life Science. Interested
undergraduates are welcome. Coffee and tea will be available -- bring your own mug!
We are looking for a few good scientists to present their
research (graduate students or faculty) --
see schedule below. Contact Dr. Helen Michaels if you are interested.
