In this talk\, Dr. Neiswenter will introduce you to some of the diversity of bats you will see flying around Clark County Wetlands Park and other areas of Las Vegas. He also will explore the amazing adaptations bats have that allow them to navigate the night skies and share museum specimens\, so you can see them up close. He will end the talk by presenting research he and colleagues have conducted over the years on one of his favorite southern Nevada bat species. \nDr. Neiswenter is an Associate Professor in Residence at the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas and has over 20 years of experience working with all things hairy: mammals. His own research focuses on carnivores\, rodents\, and bats. He uses old-school field work and cutting-edge lab techniques to address contemporary issues regarding biodiversity\, conservation\, human-wildlife interactions\, and disease. In addition\, he teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in Mammalogy\, Conservation Biology\, Human Anatomy\, and Systematics. His most recent teaching endeavor is a National Science Foundation-funded Course Based Undergraduate Research Experience\, where students conduct original research in respiratory physiology with the goal of publishing their results in peer-reviewed journals. In his free time\, he enjoys spending time exploring the great outdoors with his partner\, two sons\, and two dogs.
