Nature is far more diverse than many of us realize. Join @nathanlents.bsky.social , @experrinment.bsky.social , Alexandra E. Kralick, and @anthrofuentes.bsky.social for a discussion that explores the richness of sex across species and how we share that knowledge with the world. bit.ly/4j7YfAa

Kralick Moderator Agustin Fuentes Monday, October 12, 4:30-7:00pm Arthur Lewis Auditorium 100 Robertson Hall The biology of sex is complex, diverse, important, and all too often misunderstood. This event brings together scientists, authors, artists, and communicators who both document the richness and diversity of sex across the animal kingdom (including humans) and provide excellent examples of how to best get that knowledge into the world. University programs and activities are open to all eligible participants without regard to identity or other protected characteristics.
