    EP12 - Stream Health, eDNA, and Conservation with Evalynn Bogusz

    Fun fact: the bugs at the bottom of the water can tell you a surprising amount about the health of a stream! This week, we're joined by certified stream monitor Evalynn Bogusz (who also happens to be Keerthi's close friend and classmate) to discuss all things stream monitoring. The two will also introduce their ongoing scientific research project, "A comparison of eDNA metabarcoding and Virginia Save Our Streams kick-seine sampling methods for stream health analysis," which won several awards at the 2023 Regional Science and Engineering Fair.
