Please join us for a presentation from Junwei (Jerry) Zhu, PhD. Zhu will discuss recent advances for transferring natural product-based technologies for integrated pest management, which bridges the gap between laboratory research and commercial product development. This research is conducted through USDA-ARS laboratory collaborations with scientists from universities, research institutes, and industries nationwide.

Zhu is an adjunct professor in the department of entomology at the University of Nebraska and a guest lecturer at the University of Kentucky. He is a lead scientist at the US Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service in Lincoln, Nebraska.
