Huge thank you to our incredible partners at USDA San Joaquin Valley Agricultural Research Sciences Center for the tour of their molecular biology research laboratories, vineyard field experiment on insect control, and their national arid land repository field tour (they even have us seeds to plant)! Huge thank you to Juan Manuel Alvarez for getting us connected with Dr. Adalberto Perez De Leon, who put together the program with several researchers and his team. Thank you to the speakers, Dr. Jessica Briggs, Dr. Rodrigo Krugner, Dr. Lindsey Burbank, Brandon Ortega, and Dr. Daniel Packer. Our students in their Making Connections Worksheet, indicated they could see themselves working at the Center and didn't realize how many different programs were within the facility.
