The Story Collider @ #Evol2021

The Story Collider at Evolution 2021

Stories are powerful. Whether hilarious or heartbreaking, subversive or soothing, it matters who takes the stage and what stories are told. At the 2021 Virtual Evolution Meeting, the Society of Systematic Biologists Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Committee partnered with the Diversity Committees of the American Society of Naturalists and the Society for the Study of Evolution to host a very special virtual Story Collider event. We heard from four evolutionary biologists as they told real stories about their lives as scientists.
