Next Café – Thur Apr. 13th
Our next café of the semester is quickly approaching! How do animals use energy more efficiently? It turns out that a lot of the tendons in our bodies act like springs, helping us store energy and use it in a powerful way. Come listen to Dr. Michael Rosario, OEB alum, creator of our favorite song, and current post-doc at Brown University, talk about his research into tendons and how they influence movement. Check out the event flier below:

Our next café following quickly on the heels of our last – next Thur. 3/9, we will be hearing from Dr. Lynnette Sievert from the UMass Anthropology department.
