Every semester Dr. Koerner has several undergraduates working in her lab learning valuable hands on research. Typically, there are more people interested than Dr. Koerner can take. If this is something you are interested, please contact Dr. Koerner EARLY! And be prepared to tell her why you think being in her lab would help you towards your career goal.
CURE in Bio 315
Dr. Koerner and her lab run the Course-based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) in the Ecology and Evolution Lab (Bio 315) that all biology majors must take. This is a way for all biology majors to get a hands on authentic research experience even if they do not sign up for Bio 499 (which I strongly encourage you do!). In this CURE, student conduct a global change experiment in the greenhouse utilizing common grasses from the longleaf pine savanna understory. This data contributes to Dr. Koerner's research program that aims to help increase restoration success of longleaf pine savannas in the face of a rapidly changing world.
