Welcome to the first installment of "Science Thursday"!!
So what is Science Thursday?
Science Thursday is a weekly tradition here at Hubbard Brook. Every Thursday night, the Hubbard Brook community (mostly the REU students) gathers for discussions with top scientists and members of the Hubbard Brook community.
This week's guest was David Sleeper, Executive Director of the Hubbard Brook Research Foundation.

Topics discussed included the Science Links program at Hubbard Brook (more on this later), the disconnect between scientists and the greater public, and new research opportunities for Hubbard Brook scientists.
Anyone up for researching the potential for manufacturing of wood pellets in Coos County? How about their ecological implications?
