DPS Monthly Meeting on July 13

Amber in the World

We will meet on Wednesday, July 13th, at 7 PM Central time at the Boonesville Auditorium in the Ellison Miles Building (Bldg H) at Brookhaven Campus of Dallas College (3939 Valley View Lane, Farmers Branch). That is the same place as before COVID, with just a minor name change for the college.  We will have some signs out to help you find it if you are new or if you have forgotten.  This will be a great meeting to see old friends, meet some new ones, share our fossils, and hear about paleontology in person. 

Our guest speaker will be Virginia Friedman, presenting on “Amber in the World.” Virginia has a B.S. in Biochemistry/ Microbiology from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, 1980, an M.S. in Geology/ Paleontology from the University of Texas at Dallas, 2004, and is currently in-progress on a PhD in Paleobiology at UC Davis.

Virginia is currently research focused on recently discovered Texas amber and has been a DPS member since 1991.

We are excited for this presentation by Virginia and hope to see many DPS members and new guests attend in-person at Brookhaven.  Remote attendees are welcome to join us on Zoom at this link
