Welcome Kathryn!
The Taylor lab welcomed its first graduate student this fall!
Kathryn Grabenstein, a new PhD student in the lab, is a graduate from Cornell University where she studied Biology. As an undergraduate, Kathryn worked at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology with Dr. Mike Webster & Dr. Irby Lovette examining anthropogenic disturbances in some of the world's largest tracts of tropical savannah and their effects on the social structure of a group-living passerine. For her Honor鈥檚 Thesis, Kathryn worked with Dr. Sara Kaiser assessing the effects of food supplementation on offspring sex ratio adjustment in a North American songbird. After graduation, Kathryn worked at Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Climate Change Science Institute with Dr. Alison Boyer on a PhenoFusion project aimed at resolving spatial and temporal trade-offs between in situ and remote sensing phenological data products. Welcome to the lab, Kathryn!
