Science Sundays at the KU Field Station

Science Sundays is a monthly series of public talks at the KU Field Station. These free, public talks are held Sunday afternoons and cover a variety of science topics, including research taking place at the Field Station. Talks are intended for the general public — anyone who wants to learn more about science — but they may not interest younger audiences. You do not have to be a scientist to attend! Please RSVP to Wendy Holman (wendyholman@ku.edu), as registration is capped at 40 each month.
