Tyler Raszick takes 1st place at 2016 Graduate Student Forum

November 9, 2016 by Rob Williams

Congratulations to Tyler Raszick who won first place in the 19th Annual Graduate Student Forum. His presentation was titled, “Boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis) population genomics as a tool for monitoring and management.” Tyler’s project has been generating some very interesting quality data, and the award was well-deserved.

The Graduate Student Research Forum showcases research conducted by the Department of Entomology’s graduate students. Winners get a fancy certificate and some cash money, which in Tyler’s case was wisely invested in buying his advisor a refreshing pint!
