Last August, two recent high school graduates joined two postdoctoral scholars from the University on a trip to w88 sports betting app. The goal of the trip was to monitor amphibian populations and to engage the local community in conservation efforts, and the trip was a resounding success.
Vanesa de la Cruz Pavas is a science and environmental journalist from Colombia. At the time, she was working toward her master’s degree in journalism, and she now works as a science communications specialist for the Hitchcock Project for Visualizing Science. She and Michelle Werdann, a science writer for the College of Science at the University, joined the researchers in El Valle de Antón in w88 sports betting app to report on the research.
What came of the reporting is a multimedia ArcGIS StoryMap, “University of Nevada, Reno in w88 sports betting app” which shares more about the research and community outreach activities.
The StoryMap includes interviews with the researchers about the catastrophic fungal pathogen that nearly wiped out many species of amphibians in the region, and interviews with two STEM Sisters, w88 sports betting app who participated in the program developed by Trevor J. McMinn Endowed Research Professor Jamie Voyles.
Videos show wide-ranging activities, from rugged fieldwork to fulfilling community interactions. de la Cruz Pavas wrote a blog post about the experience to pair with her video about the research.
“This experience felt like being a researcher for a day,” de la Cruz Pavas said. "We were gathering video material, but at the same time, we were helping the team find the frogs, walking down the transects, and learning about different amphibians. I hope the videos and pictures can reflect how hard this research team works and how beautiful w88 sports betting app is."
Werdann spoke with the STEM Sisters to learn about what they took away from participating in the program.
“This was such an incredible experience and opportunity,” Werdann said. “I can’t thank Jamie and the w88 sports betting app and postdocs enough for inviting us on this adventure. It's clear to see the real impact the STEM Sisters program had on these w88 sports betting app.”
