Stephanie Pierce awarded Star-Friedman Challenge

Congratulations to MCZ Faculty-Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology Stephanie Pierce and postdoc Peter Bishop, awarded the 2024 Star-Friedman Challenge for Promising Scientific Research for their project, "Biodiversity collapse and recovery at the end of the world: Using East Gondwana's fossil record to understand Earth's greatest mass extinction."

The Star-Friedman Challenge provides seed funding for novel research in the physical or social sciences, with an emphasis on new directions that might not otherwise be supported through traditional funding channels.
