Microscopic life shapes our world in ways we rarely see, from ocean microbes that help drive Earth’s oxygen and nutrient cycles to swimming bacteria that may teach us how to detect life beyond our planet. Join us for a journey into hidden worlds, where the smallest organisms reveal some of the biggest secrets about life on Earth and in space.
This event will include 2 lectures back to back. You can read the full details on our website: https://omsi.edu/events/pint-of-science-invisible-life/
