The Entomology Department is hosting a featured speaker as part of the “E Paul Catts” Lecture series, named after a former professor and chair of the department. Dr. Elizabeth Borer, a Regents Professor at the University of Minnesota, will be the speaker. For over a decade, Elizabeth has led global experiments studying how climate change and human disturbance impact grassland communities, biodiversity, and ecosystem function. She will discuss how these global experiments have produced remarkable results and fostered long-term collaborations.
