The Natural History Museum of Utah's Annual Lecture Series: Cultivating Mutualisms with Other Species: Responding to the Call of the Honeyguide and the Stink of the Bacillus

Across history, humans have gone through many transitions regarding the species with which we partner: fruit trees, honeybees, and gut microbes (to names just a few). Many of the transitions in human partnerships occurred during times of great climate change.

Join Rob Dunn, Ph.D., in an exploration of these partnerships, imagining partnerships of the future and reconsidering current relationships, and discover the impact that ordinary professionals (like architects and chefs) are having on these vital relationships.

This event is free to attend with RSVP. For more information and to register please visit NHMU Website at the following link.

Dr. Dunn will give the same lecture at NHMU the day prior.
