Keynote presentation by acclaimed National Geographic Society photographer Joel Sartore, who has devoted his career to photographing endangered species and archiving the images in his “Photo Ark.”
After Sartore’s presentation there will be a conversation with Jonathan Losos, the William H. Danforth Professor of Biology in Arts & Sciences, and Saint Louis Zoo director Jeffrey Bonner. Losos and Bonner are members of the Living Earth Collaborative, an academic initiative dedicated to finding solutions to stem the loss of vast populations of flora and fauna.
Assembly Series programs are always free and open to the public, although some programs may have limited seating.
This is a Science Matters Lecture, co-sponsored by the Living Earth Collaborative; a reception will follow.
