Spring 2024: Successful Honors Thesis Defense!

May 11, 2024 by Dr. BenFred

Stephanie Walsh (BA Biology/Psychology, ’24) gave an outstanding thesis defense in April, crafting a talk rich in visuals, accessible to the many non-scientist friends and family who attended, and impressive/interesting to the many scientists in the audience. Her analysis of parental responsiveness to chick behaviors (including the ethogram of parental behaviors that she created), and the finding that it seems to vary by both parent and chick sex, reflects hundreds of hours of work by Steph, and will serve as a foundation for future work in the lab. Sending her off to a MS program in Psychology at NYU. You will be missed, Steph!
