Meet up-and-coming scientists and learn about questions at the forefront of research today in this series of short talks.

Sonali Garg, Postdoctoral Fellow in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, The Hanken Lab

Around 360 million years ago fish-like amphibians emerged from the water and gave rise to one of the most diverse groups of vertebrates on Earth today: frogs. Meet frog biologist Sonali Garg and explore how she combines field work with laboratory and museum research to discover new species and untangle their evolutionary histories. Learn about the ecological importance of frogs and why they are experiencing extinction threats worldwide.

Recommended for ages 10 and up.

Regular museum admission rates apply.

Presented by the Harvard Museum of Natural History and Harvard Museums of Science & Culture.
