Event Details

From an argument with the world’s leading natural historian, to his role in the first museum in the United States, to his involvement in a 1792 expedition West that would have made Lewis and Clark's journey an historical footnote, and his obsessions with Hessian flies -  Dr. Lee Dugatkin will explore Thomas Jefferson’s important role in early American natural history in this four-week short course.

Space is limited so registration is requested.
