Lillian Denecke attended the 156th American Fisheries Society Meeting in Columbus, Ohio, from August 30, 2026, through September 3, 2026. She gave a poster presentation titled “Determining natal origin of adult coho salmon in the Lake Michigan fishery using otolith microchemistry of juveniles” during the poster sessions. The conference brought together fisheries researchers and professionals, providing Lillian with a valuable opportunity to network and share the findings of her thesis research. She attended relevant presentations during the daily sessions, listened to plenary speakers, and participated in networking events throughout the week. After learning about new approaches, Lillian developed new ideas for her own research and looks forward to implementing these ideas into her work.

At Central Michigan University, accelerated master’s programs, also known as 4+1, 3+2 dual-degree, or fast-track programs, allow students to begin their master’s degree while completing their bachelor’s degree. Typically, students complete their master’s degree one year after earning their bachelor’s degree, allowing them to earn two degrees in five years while saving both time and money.

From San Francisco to the lab, CMU doctoral student Katie Monske is advancing behavioral research that could deepen our understanding of impulsive decision-making. Katie recently presented her work at the Society for the Quantitative Analysis of Behavior (SQAB) and the Association for Behavior Analysis International (ABAI) conferences, sharing research that uses animal models to investigate impulsive choice and explore characteristics associated with ADHD. Great work, Katie!🔥

As antibiotic resistance is an ongoing public health concern, methods to slow its spread are being investigated. One potential strategy being investigated is the use of supplemental zinc; however, findings to date have been inconsistent. Sarah Gardener’s project investigated the effect of zinc form and concentration on antibiotic resistance plasmid transfer in E. coli. Overall, Gardener found that with increasing zinc concentration, there is a decrease in the transfer rate of antibiotic resistance genes. Great work, Sarah!🔥
