SUMMARY:Cover Board Project Research
DESCRIPTION:COVER BOARD PROJECT RESEARCH: Students will get a chance to go to the Great Hollow Nature Preserve to survey the area for vertebrates. Cover boards will be surveyed as well as the surrounding areas. There are 60 cover boards and 3 sites in total. Students will be able to identify different species\, collect data and learn about being a field technician. From 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Great Hollow.  Contact Michael Tambascio via text or email to for more information.

SUMMARY:Threats to Our Lakes
DESCRIPTION:THREATS TO OUR LAKES: THE STATUS OF CURRENT LAKE RESEARCH AT WCSU: In continuation of the series that began in 2019\, the WCSU Department of Biology\, in collaboration with the Connecticut Federation of Lakes and Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection\, will host the second of three Regional Lake Communities Symposia\, “Threats to Our Lakes: The Status of Current Lake Research at WCSU” at 7 p.m. on Monday\, Nov. 14. WCSU Professor of Biology Dr. Theodora Pinou will moderate a discussion with panelists Andrew Selino\, Maria Rodriguez Hernandez and Ian Olsen\, WCSU graduate students pursuing Master of Science in Integrative Biological Diversity degrees\, who will discuss their current research. This event will be Virtual (was previously in person). \nThe symposium is free and the public is invited. Attendees will have the opportunity to pose questions to the panelists. Registration is required at https://westconn.tfaforms.net/217. \nUpcoming Regional Lake Communities Symposia will include: \n• “Where Have the Aquatic Plants Gone?” at 7 p.m. on Monday\, Dec. 12. WCSU Limnology Instructor Larry Marsicano will moderate a discussion with guest speakers to be announced. This will be a virtual event. \nFor more information\, send an email to Dr. Theodora Pinou at pinout@wcsu.edu.

SUMMARY:Biology Department Research Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:BIOLOGY DEPARTMENT RESEARCH SEMINAR SERIES: Virtual Research Seminar: “Farm Like Bacteria Protect WI Children from Eczema and Wheezing.” Prevalence of respiratory illnesses has increased with urbanization\, but growing up on traditional farms offers protection even today. Protective effects of farming environment appears to be associated with richer house dust microbiota\, which have been proposed to be used as a health-promoting indoor microbiome. Here\, we show by training machine learning that model the differences in house dust microbiota composition between traditionally agrarian\, farm and non-farm homes of a Wisconsin birth cohort that children who grow up in non-farm homes are more likely to be protected against wheezing and eczema as their bacterial microbiota composition is more similar to that of farm and traditionally agrarian homes.
