New Paper Published on Student Thinking of Biology Concepts from Urban and Rural Contexts

Congratulations to Andrea Burton, Eloise Davenport, Sarah Bissonnette, Kimberly Tanner, and John Coley on their collaborative research leading to a new publication in CBE-Life Sciences Education!

Their study looks at how urban and rural backgrounds of undergraduate students could influence how they think about biology misconceptions, including examples such as antibiotic resistance and ecosystems.
