UW-Green Bay biology student earns research grant

UW-Green Bay student Rebecca Malcore (Human Biology & Biology) received the Friends of Peninsula State Park grant for her effort in orchid research. Her research intends to characterize the fungal symbionts of certain orchid species at Peninsula State Park with the goal of finding out habitat requirements that may help conservation efforts. Malcore’s research findings are expected to be merged into the national database within the Smithsonian’s fungal orchid culture collection. Congratulations, Rebecca!
