I have been working to coach a set of amazing researchers to give fascinating public talks at this upcoming event, Sept 17 at the University of British Columbia: https://biodiversity.ubc.ca/events/biodiversity-research-centre-symposium-and-open-house
Highlights will include:
- how understanding the social lives of viruses gives us new tools to fight them
- how animals have shifted to be more nocturnal in the face of scary humans
- how bringing biodiversity to agriculture can help solve the global food crisis
- why sturgeon are eating themselves to death
- how gut bacteria might help save polar bears from climate stress
- what heat stress does to plants, and the global limit we shouldn't cross
- the kingdom of life you never knew about
- and... the sex lives of guppies
See you there!
