NiCHE members should remember Mark McLaughlin as the excellent co-organizers of the 2011 CHESS in St. Andrews. Now Mark’s local fame is on the rise with a front page article about his spruce budworm spraying research and the connects between this history and the current controversies over hydro-fracking in New Brunswick. Sadly the newspaper article requires a subscription to read it online, but thankfully Mark provide us with a PDF version for your reading pleasure.
Congratulations Mark!
