I’ll be giving a talk this week as part of the Yale-Myers Forest Summer Research Seminar Series, titled “Spider Webs and Climate Resilient Forests: A New Tool for Monitoring Biodiversity and Species of Concern.” I’ll cover how spider-web eDNA can be used to track wildlife and forest health, including the Hatch-funded work we’re ramping up this fall with the Squam Lakes Natural Science Center, The Nature Conservancy, and NH Fish & Game.

When: Wednesday, July 22, 2026, 6:30–7:30 PM EDT Where: Yale-Myers Forest Camp, 150 Centre Pike Road, Eastford, CT (hybrid, with a Zoom option)
