"Hidden in Plain Sight: Camouflage, Chameleons, and Nature’s Invisibility Cloaks"
"Ever wish you had a Invisibility Cloak like Harry Potter? Nature certainly has. From chameleons, to cuttlefish, to insects, the world is filled with organisms that can disguise themselves and appear invisible. Come explore the hidden world of illusion in November’s Science Under the Stars talk!"
Science Under the Stars is a free, monthly public outreach lecture series founded and organized by graduate students in the Department of Integrative Biology at The University of Texas at Austin. Events are held at 7:30pm outdoors at Brackenridge Field Laboratory, 2907 Lake Austin Blvd, Austin, Texas 78703 during the Fall and Spring academic semesters. In the case of inclement weather, lectures are held indoors. Arrive early for refreshments and fun activities for kids of all ages!
