Leann Kanda

Associate Professor, Biology

Several times students have joined me for one of the national society conferences; most recent five students joined me to present work at the 2018 Animal Behavior Society meeting in Milwaukee.  Even when they can't join me, they may co-author posters or presentations at these meetings.
