Perspectives Lecture Series: May 2026

We're excited for our upcoming Jeffrey B. Graham Perspectives on Ocean Science Lecture — Neurobiology in a Changing Ocean — with Professor Martin Tresguerres.

Climate change is fundamentally altering marine environments worldwide. But what does this mean for the creatures that call the ocean home? Join Professor Martin Tresguerres as he delves into the work of the Allen Discovery Center for Neurobiology in Changing Environments (ADC-NiCE), where researchers are working towards answering this question. Through a combination of neurobiology, physiology and environmental science, ADC-NiCE investigates how climate change affects the nervous systems and behavior of marine animals — ultimately guiding policy, conservation strategies and restoration efforts.

Seating is limited and lectures often sell out, so advanced registration is strongly recommended. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the lecture begins at 7 p.m.
