Speaker Description:​ Dr. Alice Boyle and I developed an activity for participants to “get their science on”. In this interactive workshop, Sarah Winnicki encourages participants to hypothesize about the cause of avian migration from gathered data about bird bill morphology, diet, and migratory tendencies. Throughout the program, participants discuss and have questions answered about their data and revisit their hypotheses.
