SUMMARY:Live Virtual Presentation by Stephen Russell
DESCRIPTION:A Virtual Presentation with Stephen Russell\nThe Next Generation of DNA Research\nJoin us with Stephen Russell\, a mycologist from Indiana working on a biodiversity survey of all of the macrofungi (mushrooms) that occur in the state. He founded The Hoosier Mushroom Society in 2009 and is currently the President of the organization. His initial interest in mushrooms began with cultivation\, which led to writing a book titled The Essential Guide to Cultivating Mushrooms (Storey Publishing\, 2014). Stephen’s current project is a citizen science and DNA based exploration of local fungal biodiversity\, which has now generated thousands of new DNA-sequenced collections of fungal fruitbodies from across the state – amassing records for over 2\,000 unique species. \nPlease RSVP by November 9th\, 2022\, to attend. We will email you the ZOOM link as the event dates draws closer.
