@sceneUofG @JessicaRFordyce @hanhonkanen Such a great session with fun filled activities

[SCENE @sceneUofG]

Yesterday we hosted a Wee MerrySTEMs @wmstems session, focusing on Atlantic salmon and the amazing migration they do. We had a great time teaching the kids about the life cycle and ecology of salmon, with a taster of some of the fieldwork we do for sample collection!
