Ecological Society of America 2024 Conference in Long Beach

Many lab members attended the ESA conference in Long Beach in August 2024, and we had a blast! Jess, Jessica, Jacob and Leonora (and Fiona!) all gave talks and Denisse presented a poster. The MTM team also organized an oral session on “Understanding functional community assembly over time” with fantastic invited speakers. It was very well-attended and all talks were excellent! Our lab group stayed at a lovely AirBnB by the beach, and biked into the conference together using the city bike program. A few of us took the ferry to Catalina Island on the last day.
