Slice of Science Lecture Series
Event description
The revamped Slice of Science series will occur monthly on every third Thursday from 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM at Mojave Flea in Yucca Valley. The lectures, curated by the JTNPA Education team, will be designed to make scientific content accessible to the public.
This is an ADA accessible activity - little to no travel required.
The Slice of Science series bridges the gap between scientific research and the public by disseminating relevant findings and fostering community engagement. The program was developed to meet the presentation requirement of the Marian Huff Tremblay Science Scholarship. We will host a range of desert researchers and scientists for this programming, widening the scope beyond scholarship awardees.
Desert Institute has a long history of community outreach, and over the past 20-some years has provided hundreds of public lectures and events that elucidate the natural and cultural histories of the Morongo Basin and Coachella Valley. The Slice of Science lecture series features lectures, presentations, demonstrations, and workshops by scientists and researchers who focus their efforts in desert environments.
These lectures are free and open to the public!
