Last weekend these three amazing community college students presented a poster of their Science CORPS research at the Indiana Academy of Sciences Annual Meeting in Indianapolis! They and their fellow Science CORPS participants found that seed predation was greater in rural environments than suburban environments, and that seed predation did not differ between native and exotic plant species, thus rejecting the Enemy Release Hypothesis (which posits that invaders escape many of their enemies during the invasion process). We had a great time watching talks, talking science, and eating surprisingly delicious meals (we got chocolate cake for lunch dessert?!). Congrats Emily, Teresa, and Mary on your presentation, and thanks to Kelsey and Nate for your contributions to the poster!
