BIOS speaker this Thursday 3:30

 Thursday, Feb 10 at 3:30p on Zoom (link below) Dr. Becca Barnes of Colorado College will give her talk entitled "Reimagining STEM to make it more inclusive and welcoming." I think folks in your department will be interested in this because Dr. Barnes is a biogeochemist and ecosystem ecologist who is interested in understanding how aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems process and export nitrogen and carbon. She is particularly interested in understanding how disturbance and global change drivers (e.g. nitrogen deposition, land use change, and warming) affect ecosystem function. Her work overlaps with many graduate students in our and other (Geology) departments and will be of broad interests. She’s also in the leadership of 500 Women Scientists, which she’ll talk about as well.
