JEC: Interview with Lauren Urgenson

GPS tracking helps uncover bull elephant reproductive tactics during Musth Paper–Movement reveals reproductive tactics in male elephants https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/1365-2656.13035 With some exceptions, universities rarely teach STEM undergrads how to communicate science to a general audience. This is our initial step towards undergrad science education and teaching them how to communicate science to a wider audience.
