Meet up-and-coming scientists and learn about questions at the forefront of research today in this series of short talks. https://tinyurl.com/SpecialEventSciSpotlightsHow to Help a Scientist Find a New Species
Speaker: Thalles Lavinscky Pereira, Biodiversity Fellow, Farrell Lab
2:00–2:30 PM (20-minute talk followed by 10-minute Q&A)
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 in which extinction may outpace discovery, how can citizen scientists get involved? Join me as I share how residents in Alaska helped me discover and describe a new species of snake worm gnat and learn how you, too, can participate in the scientific process.
