    About this event

    See the latest science firsthand in the Grainger Science Hub.

    Join Linnea Lungstrom, Field Museum Research Associate - Division of Fishes, to examine different venomous fishes in Field Museum collections. Explore the diversity of venom across fishes, venom delivery systems and learn how they may contribute towards evolution.

    Scientists, researchers, and collections managers are behind the scenes every day, uncovering new information and taking care of our collection.

    During Meet a Scientist, you can find them in the Grainger Science Hub. They'll discuss their work and share real items from the museum’s collection of nearly 40 million objects. From collections care to field work, and dinosaurs to ecology, there’s a world of science to explore.

    Visit the Science Hub on select weekdays for an up-close look at what our researchers do every day.
