Beginning two summers ago (2018), the Biology Department started a summer Dinner with a Scientist series where we invited a local scientist to speak to a small group of summer students over dinner.  In the spirit of this series, we continued with the series this summer in the form of a Zooming with a Scientist series.  This series of Zoom seminars are intended to help students explore the fields available to them with a degree in biology.
