"Mass Extinctions: A brief history of life’s worst moments", a lecture with Dr. Phoebe Cohen

Thursday, June 12, 3:30 – 4:30 p.m. 

Mass Extinctions: A brief history of life’s worst moments with Phoebe Cohen, Assistant Professor of Geosciences
Life on Earth has experienced at least 5 major events we call “mass extinctions,” where a huge number of species have gone extinct in a short period of time. This talk will explore how we decide which extinctions get to be considered “mass,” the ways in which these events have reshaped life as we know it, and how a deep understanding of past extinctions can help us see the future.
