La Selva

This summer, I ventured down to Costa Rica to participate in the OTS Tropical Biology course. It has been one of the best experiences of my life. But, in particular, I wanted to share a project that a group of us put together. Now, this wasn't a typical project for this course, which usually consists of a week to plan, execute, present, and write up a research project. This project was geared towards science outreach. With the help of some amazing visiting scientists, filmmakers, and producers, we had the privilege to create a short film in 3 days! Our group decided to concentrate on what makes La Selva Biological Research Station so important. Enjoy!
