Please note: We are now meeting at a new dinner venue -- Nirvana at 1680 Massachusetts Ave. 

Join us for a meeting of the Cambridge Entomological Club! Are you as excited as I am for today's meeting??? I can't wait to see you all there and to listen to Crystal's talk about the MCZ!

Date: Tuesday, March 10 @7:30 PM EST 
Location: In Person in MCZ101A, or on Zoom
Title:  Adventures in the Entomology Collections at the MCZ: from microscope slides to giant moths
Speaker: Crystal Maier
Summary: The MCZ Entomology Collection is one of the largest and most diverse university insect collections in the country, and is rich with historically important specimens. Here, we'll explore some of the history and current projects of the MCZ Entomology Collection, including our recent efforts to rehouse and database our microscope slide collection as part of the NSF-funded INSLIDE Project. Crystal Maier is the Curatorial Associate in the Entomology Collection at the MCZ, and along with the staff in MCZ Entomology Collection, she manages the day-to-day needs of the nearly 8 million insect specimens in the collection and the researchers that use the collection.

NOTICE: We will be holding hybrid meetings to accommodate COVID-19 precautions and audience members from around the world. You can join our Zoom meeting by clicking here.

For those able to attend, we will have an informal dinner at 6:00 pm at Nirvana (1680 Massachusetts Ave) with the speaker, followed by our formal meeting (7:30 - 9:00 pm) in room MCZ101A of the Museum of Comparative Zoology (there will be signs to help direct). The meeting will begin with club announcements, followed by a 60-minute presentation by the invited speaker and Q&A.
