Poster Reflection Post
So I was fairly surprised with the variety of posters at the poster session. I thought all of us as a collective Macaulay class were doing posters all around the same topic of plastics, or similarly structured but I was mistaken. The posters all varied in topic from discussing the water quality in Israel, to the effects of caffeine in the human body, but my favorite poster was the one pertaining to the Little Brown Bat. Mostly because the title was cute (everyone like Little Brown Bats, which according to the group who presented it was the common scientific name of the mammal), I was interested in the poster but as the presenting group explained their topic I was even more interested. They ended up using the information they gathered from their BioBlitz day (combining one girl’s experience with the bat group with another’s experience in the beetle group) to research a poster that showed the problem of beetle infestation in the Little Brown Bat population. I liked the entire session and over all had a great overall impression of the time.
