Kaysee passes her qualifying exam with flying colors

Kaysee Arrowsmith officially became a PhD candidate on Monday, when she passed her qualifying exam! For this exam, Kaysee presented her proposal on network rewiring and answered questions about the proposal and other ecology topics from her committee (Dr. Elli Theobald, Dr. Lauren Buckley, and Dr. Briana Abrahms). Her presentation covered network rewiring across spatial gradients, which she started at RMBL in 2019, and the effects of network rewiring on seed production in Delphinium barbeyi. Her hard work and many hours of reading paid off, and she passed without any reservations from her committee. Great job, Kaysee!
