Kat Taylor, who was a 2021 participant in the DAPS REU program, graduated from Penn State this spring and while on a cross-country road trip stopped in Flagstaff to say hello. Kat had worked on greenhouse gas fluxes from biocrusts in an interdisciplinary project that included Andrew, Mariah, Matt Bowker (Forestry/Ecoss), George Koch (Bio/Ecoss), Mark Salvatore (DAPS), and David Trilling (DAPS) as mentors. During her visit, Kat said that the REU program had been “literally life-changing” for her. Good luck in all your future endeavors, Kat!
