2024 Keiser Lecture
7:30 p.m., Wednesday, April 17
McIntosh Ballroom at Ohio Northern University
Evolutionary biologists Peter R. Grant, professor of zoology, emeritus, and B. Rosemary Grant, senior research biologist, emeritus, both within the Princeton University’s Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, will be the featured speakers for the 2024 Terry Keiser Distinguished Lectureship in the Life Sciences. Their presentation, titled “The Nature of the Galapágos,” is free and open to the public.
The Grants are internationally acclaimed for their work with finches of the Galapágos Islands, most of it on the island of Daphne Major. Since 1973, they have spent six months of every year studying the island’s finches. Their groundbreaking work has shown that natural selection can be seen even within a few years.
