Dr. Fierer will be presenting two seminars. Please note that the Wednesday seminar will now take place at 12:30 PM in ENGR 101, while the Thursday seminar will remain in BNR 102 at 4 PM.  Wednesday, 1/21: "Never invited to the feast: The ecology of oligotrophic soil bacteria" Thursday, 1/22: "What 'macro'-bial ecologists can learn from microbial ecologists (and vice versa)" About Dr. Fierer: I am a microbial ecologist, and my research group focuses on microbes living in a range of environments, including those bacteria and fungi living inside our homes, in soil, on plants, and in the atmosphere. We use various approaches, including DNA sequencing and high-throughput cultivation, to explore the diversity and structure of microbial communities, build a trait-based understanding of microbial life, and examine how microorganisms influence the health of ecosystems, plants, and animals (including humans).

EcoArt Words in the Wild: (Part1) Workshop Crafting Found Poetry from Research, Field Notes, & Collaboration with Nature

Workshop/Training

EcoArt is a low-pressure, drop-in space to explore the intersection of ecology, art, and creativity through workshops and open studio time. For this workshop, join two USU poets (basil payne and sarah ann woodbury) for a two-part, hands-on workshop series exploring how your research or time in nature can become poetry made in collaboration with the more-than-human world. For the first workshop bring any field notes, journals, nature-related research or chapters, sketches, or informal writings from time spent outdoors (it can be yours or someone else's). In this session, you'll be guided to find poetic threads and images in these works and to create a found poem from these threads. Between workshops, participants will submit one poem to be printed as a large broadside.
