Event Details
Join C2ST and Dr. Eric Gorscak for our monthly Science and Sandwiches Program! On the first Friday of every month, we will be sitting down with an expert during the lunch hour to chat about life, about science, careers, a day on the job, and whatever else you’re interested in learning about them–within reason, anyways.
Dr. Eric Gorscak is an Assistant Professor at Midwestern University whose work focuses on reconstructing evolutionary relationships between extinct animals, and teaching anatomy courses for medical students. Dr. Gorscak specializes in titanosaurian sauropods–four-legged, long-necked dinosaurs–and uses computer software modeling, international fieldwork, and museum specimen-based methods in his research.
At C2ST, we believe that access to experts is important in ensuring that science is for everyone, which is why we want to host these conversations. We encourage you to grab some grub, make yourself comfortable, tune into the conversation, and if you’re up for it, ask a question.
Event Details
Friday, March 5 from 12:15pm-12:45pm CT, hosted through Zoom.
You will receive a Zoom link to attend the program the day of the event!
We plan on allowing you to ask questions of our expert yourself! Or, you may use our Q&A app to ask live questions during the program or send in your questions in advance! Remember to upvote your favorite questions.
