Adriana Barsan (MS student, Entomology) won the graduate student talk competition at the Pacific Northwest Insect Management Conference in Portland, Oregon in January 2025. Adriana’s talk was on the effects of rotational crops in potato systems on arthropod communities and pest management. This was Adriana’s first official talk on their masters research, so we’re super proud! (co-authors were Nottingham, Deirdre Griffon LaHue, and Gabe LaHue)
