Join the Great Basin Chapter, Utah Friends of Paleontology, November 17 at 7:00 PM for our hybrid meeting. Our guest speaker in-person at the Utah Core Center will be Kathleen Ritterbush, Ph.D., Assistant Professor at the University of Utah’s Department of Geology and Geophysics. Dr. Ritterbush explores the roles of animal life in Earth’s dynamic system through time. Her research uses field, computation, microscopy, and experimental work to discover practical animal-environment interactions that underpinned marine ecosystems in deep time.
Please note: our in-person meetings will now be held in the Utah Core Research Center’s conference room. We look forward to seeing members in-person for the first time since meetings went online during the pandemic. The conference room is equipped for hybrid meetings, so we also look forward to members and guests who can join us online via Google Meet.
