Discover current research and meet real scientists at Scientist Saturdays. See hands-on demonstrations of scientists’ exciting research and ask all the questions you want from 1 to 4 p.m.

This month, meet malacology graduate students Gizelle Batomalaque and Nate Shoobs who study land snails. Batomalaque and Shoobs have traveled worldwide on collection trips and museum visits to refine the relationships and diversity of the species they study. See some of the gear that they use during collection expeditions. Learn how to identify land snails like a malacologist, even when different species look exactly the same!
