Fermentology seminar series
a virtual mini-seminar series about the applied ecology, evolution and history of our cultured food.
Every week for the next few months you can listen to short virtual seminars about the culture, history and science behind the foods you have at home such as beer, cheese and sourdough.
The Department of Applied Ecology at North Carolina State University will host these short virtual talks about our cultured food and Rob Dunn who is a PI at Center for Evolutionary Hologenomics at GLOBE Institute is one of the speakers and people behind this new Fermentology 101 mini-seminar series.
Everyone is welcome to join the series of short talks (20 minutes on average). You can registrer to attend the virtual talks by filling in this form and you will be emailed a link to the talk the day before.
