Nebraska’s Eileen Hebets will discuss her groundbreaking discoveries, passion for informal science education, and the curiosity and persistence underlying her research in the next Nebraska Lecture, 3:30 p.m. Nov. 7 in the Nebraska Union Auditorium.

The lecture, “Using Arachnids to Inspire D.R.E.A.M.S.,” is free and open to the public.

A live webcast is available online and via Facebook live. For updates during the lecture, follow @UNLresearch or #neblecture on Twitter.

“Arachnids are something that everyone can relate to,” said Hebets, professor of biological sciences. “All Nebraskans will go home from the lecture having learned about something that lives in their backyard.”
