Biodiversity Journal Club

1 unit

Students in this journal club will meet weekly to discuss published research relevant to biodiversity science. Collectively, papers selected for discussion during any single semester will cover a broad range of topics in ecology, evolution, systematics and conservation biology (for examples, see: http://mobot-diversity-jc.weebly.com/previous-semesters.html). Journal club attendees include students, postdocs, faculty and researchs from Washington University, UM-St. Louis, St. Louis University, and Missouri Botanical Garden. Enrolled students will attend journal club every week and once per semester will choose a paper and lead the discussion; evaluations will be based on participation and performance.
