Scientists estimate that there are over 7.5 million species of plants and animals that have yet to be discovered and described. But in a world where extinction may outpace discovery, how can citizen scientists get involved?
Join Thalles P. Lavinscky Pereira, PhD., a Biodiversity Fellow in the Farrell Lab, to learn how residents in Alaska helped him discover and describe a new species of snakeworm gnat and learn how you, too, can participate in the scientific process.
Regular admission rates apply.
