Evening Lecture Series

Join us at the River Center for our evening lecture series!

Our October evening speaker is Scott Ostuni, Sequence Validator for FunDiS

Scott Ostuni, apart of the NAMA DNA Sequencing Committee and Entheome (Entheogen Genome Project), studies fungal taxonomy in the Southeastern United States. Some of his accolades include discovering a new Florida mushroom species “Psilocybe niveo-tropicalis” as well as increasing our understanding of the distribution of various species of fungi in the state of Florida. Scott is extremely passionate about recruiting aspiring mycologists to help outline the biodiversity of fungi in the state of Florida. Join his lecture and learn about the fascinating world of fungi and learn the modern approach to foraging mushrooms.

Registration is required to attend.
