Visiting Professor from Missouri State University
January 29, 2016 Dr. Tomasi visited iGEM to present to our team about animal energetics and hibernation of bats. He was able to highlight the potential dangers of bats continually awakening from hibernation which is often caused by infection with White Nose Syndrome. He even brought a bat recently captured in a building at MSU for us to meet!
