Meet up-and-coming scientists and learn about questions at the forefront of research today in this series of short talks. Learn how Sophie Everbach investigates tree “muscle,” a special kind of wood that allows trees to keep their bodies strong as they forage for light. Join Carlos Rivera-Lopez to discover how some animals can regenerate entire parts of their body if they lose them—even a brand new head with a mouth and a brain.Each Science Spotlight in the series will include several short research talks.
Presented by the Harvard Museum of Natural History and the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture
