Special Opportunities:

You will be able to explore the world of weed science and seed priming, be exposed to new technology and work on its development, and develop transferable research skills!

Team Needs:
A interest in agriculture and plants, the ability to work independently and with a team, and an effective communicator!
Description:
We will be testing the newly developed directed energy unit, which uses blue light and mid-IR to kill smaller seeds, but can help trigger germination in larger seeded species.
