That's what recent CMU graduate Asher Warkentin did when he was given the opportunity to study microscopic cold-blooded organisms with Rachel Krause, Associate Professor of Biology at CMU, in soouthern Africa. The flexible environment at CMU, Warkentin says, enabled him to balance a three-week international research trip with his other coursework.
"I feel like it was really a good example of what CMU can offer," he says. "You'd never have this sort of experience at a larger university."
Warkentin, accompanied by Krause, joined researchers connected to the Locally Led Indigenous Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Change Adaptation in Zimbabwe (LINCZ) project, a Global Affairs Canada-funded initiative focused on climate resilience and biodiversity in partnership with Mennonite Central Committee (MCC).
At CMU, May is Research Month, where stories from students and faculty who have done incredible research through CMU will be highlighted.
