A 26-year-old biologist from Texas shares her passion for bats, sparked by a chance encounter. She received a Thomas J Watson Fellowship to study global perceptions of bats and their impact on conservation. Bats are often misunderstood, associated with myths and diseases, yet they play crucial ecological roles in pest control, pollination, and seed dispersal.
