  • Fiona Ashton-Knochel ’24 is spending her summer on a bird refuge in Brigham City, Utah. The Environmental Studies major sat down with us to discuss her exciting internship and to offer suggestions for anyone looking to land their own internship working in conservation. Why did…

    working in conservation. Why did you want to pursue an environmental studies degree? I’m a tree hugger, so naturally this major caught my eye. Genuinely, though, I chose Environmental Studies because it teaches me to use multiple fields of study to approach environmental issues. That’s a pretty useful skill for anyone to have. Pursuing this degree also allows a thorough focus on multiple interests, and it’s rewarding to juggle my love for the sciences and humanities at the same time. Why did you

    Welcome to the Irene Creso HerbariumThe Irene Creso Herbarium serves as both a teaching resource for biology classes at Pacific Lutheran University, and as research goldmine of taxonomic and distribution gems chiefly from Pierce, Chelan, Kitsap, and other western Washington counties. The collection holds over 10,000 specimens, over 9,000 of which are digitized and accessible to researchers anywhere via the PNW Herbarium Consortium database. In addition to a good representation of vascular

  • Assistant Professor of Biology | Department of Biology | lnervo@plu.edu | 253-535-7376 | My discipline of interest is developmental biology, which is the study of the processes needed for animals and plants to grow and develop.  Developmental Biology is an excellent field that intersects, genetics, cell biology, molecular biology, physiology and comparative anatomy to answer key organismal growth questions.
