BIOL-L 570 Seminar in Ecology and Environmental Biology class meets for presentations and discussions of current research in Evolution, Ecology, and Behavior, a.k.a. EEB Brown Bag seminar series. This venue is open to graduate students, postdocs, and other researchers to present their work in the EEB. This highly interactive and well-attended series is open to the research community and encourages broad discussion between the audience and the speaker.

The EEB Brown Bag seminar series meets during the fall and spring semesters. A new schedule is available at the beginning of each semester.

Fall 2021 schedule
