Details:
Join us and the FI Conservancy at the Museum for an illustrated talk by Dr. Adam Jadhav, a fellow of the Center for Biodiversity and Conservation at the American Museum of Natural History, who will speak about his extensive interdisciplinary research on American Eels.
The American eel (Anguilla rostrata) represents a kind of occult, slippery “nature,” a historically mysterious species that continues to baffle scientists today. While the broad outlines of the eel’s multistage, bizarre, complex life cycle are known, far more questions than answers remain.
WHEN: Sunday, July 26, 2026
TIME: 4-5 p.m.
PLACE: In person at the Museum and virtual via zoom
Adam Jadhav earned his PhD in Geography from the University of California at Berkeley. Mixed methods researcher focused on coastal/marine spaces in India through lenses of political ecology, development theory, peasant studies, agrarian change, neoliberalism and the like.
