Science Speaker Series - Dave Remsen

Each summer, the Maria Mitchell Association hosts scientists and research experts on a wide variety of scientific topics. Join us for this week's talk on “A Science-Watcher's View of the Biodiversity of the Nantucket Sound” with Dave Remsen from the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole. Cape Cod sits at the crossroads between two distinct marine environments. It is also the home to a range of world-renowned scientific organizations. The Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole relies on marine biodiversity to teach us about our own biology and how living things work. MBL’s David Remsen will introduce you to the amazing discoveries and stories behind some familiar (and unfamiliar) Nantucket marine life. He will also discuss how MMA and Nantucket citizens can contribute to scientific research themselves. Members: Free Non-members: $10 Parking in town lot
