Members: $10; Nonmembers: $12
Dr. Menno Schilthuizen, Senior Researcher, Naturalis Biodiversity Center; Professor of Evolutionary Biology, Leiden University

With much of the rest covered by human-shaped farms, pasture, and plantations, where can nature still go? Dr. Schilthuizen will discuss this new chapter in the history of life–a chapter in which much older biodiversity is disappearing, but also one in which new and exciting life forms are being born.
