How Does Extreme Heat Affect Bees and Blueberries? - Jenna Walters, Student Research PresentationJenna Walters is a 5th year PhD candidate in the Rufus Isaacs Lab, earning a dual degree in the Department of Entomology and the Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior (EEB). Her research is focused on understanding the consequences of extreme heat on native bee pollinators and blueberry pollination systems. Her interdisciplinary approach to research, drawing from entomology, plant biology, biochemistry, and ecology has allowed her to conduct well-rounded research on the direct and indirect effects of climate change on our natural and agricultural ecosystems.
