The John & Barbara Ferrera Ocean Science Lecture Series
The John & Barbara Ferrera Ocean Science Lecture Series provides a forum for the community to learn about FAU Harbor Branch’s most recent discoveries directly from the scientists and engineers who make them. The invited speakers from other institutions are colleagues who work on topics relevant to our FAU Harbor Branch research themes. Lectures are held in the auditorium of the Johnson Education Center at FAU’s Harbor Branch campus, 5600 U.S. 1 North, Fort Pierce, FL 34946, 4:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. There is no charge to attend.
Lectures are free and open to the public. A Season Pass must be presented for admittance to each lecture. Registration is available on-site, by phone (772-242-2293) or at the link below.
