Biodiversity Lecture Series
The Beaty Biodiversity Museum presents an ongoing series of lectures exploring our understandings of biodiversity. As humans we
appreciate biodiversity from diverse points of view: as scientists we study its origins and global significance, as artists we celebrate its
staggering beauty, as consumers we depend on it, and as organisms we participate in it. In this public lecture series, prominent scientists,
artists, and public figures will share their perspectives on biodiversity: How did life diversify? What are the ecological interconnections
in biodiversity? How does biodiversity matter to us? And, with one of today's most pressing questions, how much biodiversity can we afford to lose?
