Molecular Plant Science Graduate Student Organization presents Plant Science Day. A free event for hands on plant science activities. Join us to build gingerbread plant cells, extract DNA from strawberries, and make living jewelry to spread the joy of plant life.

Few species are as iconic as Pacific salmon. When considering their importance as a food source, their popularity as a recreational fishery, and they ways our natural systems rely on the immense nutrients deposited by their carcasses after spawning, it’s easy to see why their declines resonate across regions and latitudes. For certain First Nations peoples, including those on whose homelands many of us here in the Palouse reside, these declines are deeply felt.
