Updated: Cambridge Entomological Club meeting Tuesday 11/18

[Amine Kousba]

Hi all - please disregard the previous announcement -- this month's meeting is on 11/18!

Join us for a meeting of the Cambridge Entomological Club!

Date: Tuesday, November 18th @7:30 PM EST 

Location: In Person in MCZ101A, or on Zoom

Title: Arthropod injuries & infestations: The real and the imagined

Speaker: Rich Pollack

Summary: People are frequently burdened by bites, stings, infestations, and irritations from insects and other arthropods. Often, the cause is obvious and verifiable. Other times (and with surprising frequency), the conclusions may be fallacious, even if the injuries and sensations are very real to the sufferer. These problems affect folks from all walks of life and status, including students, faculty, and staff members of this institution. How might one sort the wheat from the chaff, and with what result?

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 Cambridge Common Restaurant 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. Membership is open to amateur and professional entomologists - that means everyone!
