Jenna Walters
I am a PhD candidate studying pollination ecology in Dr. Rufus Isaacs lab. My research is focused on understanding the impacts of extreme heat on crop pollination with a focus on highbush blueberry. Specifically, I seek to understand the effects of extreme heat on the reproductive functioning and output of blueberry plants and their native bee pollinators.
