Event Details
Join Dr. Chris Richardson for his “Bats 101” presentation. After the basics on bats, Dr. Richardson will dive into his current research applying the study of stress and energetic cost of immune function to understanding how bat physiology and ecology connect with white-nose syndrome (WNS), a deadly disease killing bats. This will include his work on how bat colonies are recovering from WNS. He will also present his research project on the diversity and activity of bat species in urban ecosystems.
Chris Richardson is an adjunct assistant research professor at Boston University and Biology Instructor at Tufts University. He is also a major collaborator at the Mt. Auburn Cemetery Urban Ecology Research and Education Project.
