Graduate Studies
2019's UCSC Grad Slam hosted 13 graduate student presentations. The enthusiastic audience heard a wide range of topics discussed, from the fall of the Soviet Union, to dark matter, to the abilities of lizards to adapt to climate change. Champion Sarah Kienle won for her presentation on elephant seal sexual dimorphism; Runner Up Rachel Harbeitner won for her talk about deep-sea carbon eating bacteria. Rachel will move on to the UCOP Grad Slam in May to represent UCSC (Kienle will be in Antarctica!). Watch all videos on our YouTube channel linked here. Watch»
