Description:
Science on Tap - New River Valley presents their July event titled "What makes a home? Understanding the habitats of threatened species." on Thursday, July 25, 2024 at Rising Silo Farm Brewery.

Find out how satellites and math can be used to answer questions about where threatened species live and how we can protect their homes. Ph.D. student Connor Hughes from Virginia Tech's Department of Fish and Wildlife Conservation will help us learn about some of these species that might be our neighbors and what they need to thrive. Then we'll get to try finding homes for some picky house hunters!

Science on Tap - New River Valley is a monthly event with science-inspired speakers, performers, and discussions. We support bringing science to our community and our community’s support to local research.

We kick off the event with games, comedy, or other fun things. Then, an invited guest researcher demos their research. And then we'll discuss, ask questions, learn together and mingle.
