Wednesday, January 27, 5:00 pm MSTThe current time in the MST timezone is 7:07 am
Duration: 30 minutes
Grab a bevy and tune in to laugh and learn at a virtual and educational happy hour. Join the Desert Museum's Education Manager, Catherine Bartlett, as she interviews scientists from around the world- and not necessarily about their area of expertise! Be silly. This week we'll meet Hem Nalini Morzaria-Luna, Principal Researcher and Coordinator of the Program on Climate Change and Ecosystem Management of Intercultural Center for the Study of Deserts and Oceans (CEDO). Be silly. Be surprised. BYOB.
