SUMMARY:Scientists Live: Mason Heberling
DESCRIPTION:Postdoctoral Research Fellow\, Mason Heberling\, will do a broadcast on Facebook Live to share the importance and power of museum specimen digitization! Botanists at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History have recently embarked on a three-year project to digitize nearly 190\,000 plant specimens collected in the region. This effort is part of the Mid-Atlantic Megalopolis Project (mamdigitization.org)\, a network of thirteen herbaria spanning the densely populated urban corridor from Washington\, D.C. to New York City to achieve a greater understanding of our urban areas\, including the unique industrial and environmental history of the greater Pittsburgh area. How have the plants of Pittsburgh changed over the past century? In this interactive broadcast\, Mason will introduce the plant collection at the museum (>0.5 million specimens strong\, dating back the 1800s)\, the uses of these specimens to understanding the world around us\, and the value of digitization and making specimens freely accessible to scientists\, students\, and the public. Each specimen has an important scientific and cultural story to tell. \nThe broadcast will begin at 10:30 a.m. and will include a question and answer segment. \nTune in at facebook.com/carnegiemnh. A recording will be posted later for those unable to watch live.

SUMMARY:Scientists Live: Nicole Heller
DESCRIPTION:Nicole Heller\, Curator of the Anthropocene\, will do a broadcast on Facebook Live to share items in the Carnegie Museum of Natural History collections that relate to the essay collection Future Remains: A Cabinet of Curiosities for the Anthropocene. Dr. Heller co-wrote the lead essay “Anthropocene in a Jar” with Assistant Professor in Anthropology at the University of Pittsburgh\, Dr. Tomas Matza. The essay mediates on the blurry boundaries\, and often vexed relationship\, between human development and natural processes through the lens of a jar of curiously patterned sand and shells collected at Wrightsville Beach.\nThe broadcast will begin at 10:30 a.m. and will include a question and answer segment. \nTune in at facebook.com/carnegiemnh. A recording will be posted later for those unable to watch live. \n

SUMMARY:Scientists Live: Matt Lamanna
DESCRIPTION:Assistant Curator and Head of Vertebrate Paleontology Dr. Matt Lamanna will broadcast on Facebook Live to share details of his upcoming research trip to Croatia. Discovered in the 1990s\, the site of Kolone/Porto Colonne on the coast of Istria\, Croatia preserves ~130-million-year-old dinosaur bones in shallow water on the bed of the Adriatic Sea. During the time these dinosaurs were alive\, this area of Croatia was part of a large island or long peninsula in the middle of an ancient ocean. Despite its probable significance\, the site has never been systematically explored by paleontologists. Lamanna and a team of Croatian\, Italian\, and US paleontologists\, geologists\, and scientific divers will conduct a five-day underwater reconnaissance of Kolone/Porto Colonne from October 8–13\, to discover additional fossils\, map the site in detail\, and form a comprehensive plan for future research. \nThe broadcast will begin at 10:30 a.m. and will include a question and answer segment. \nTune in at facebook.com/carnegiemnh. A recording will be posted later for those unable to watch live. \n
