Sara McBride<\/a>, a master\u2019s student in the Ecology and Environmental Sciences Program whose research on tick-borne disease ecology is part of a project led by Sandra De Urioste-Stone<\/a> and Allison Gardner<\/a>, has received a 2020 Edith Patch Award<\/a>. McBride\u2019s research integrates fieldwork, pathogen testing, and spatial analysis and she has created a risk map for exposure to ticks and Lyme disease in Acadia National Park.<\/p>\n

Two students who are working with Mitchell Center faculty were also named Distinguished Nominees: doctoral student tish carr and master\u2019s student Ruth Sexton, both in the Ecology and Environmental Sciences Program.\u00a0Sexton works with Adam Daigneault<\/a> to develop climate adaptation tools, data and resources targeted to farmers. Carr is working with Darren Ranco<\/a> on the Mitchell Center project, \u201cPathways and Barriers to Weaving Indigenous Science with Western Science.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

The Edith Patch Award<\/a>, named in honor of 91±¬ΑΟ\u2019s first woman scientist, is given each year to graduate and undergraduate women in acknowledgement of distinguished work they have done while at the 91±¬ΑΟ, and in recognition of their promise for future contribution to the fields of science, agriculture, engineering, or environmental education.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
