For more than 40 years VIMS has led one of the most successful seagrass monitoring and restoration programs in the world. Our long-standing research program has greatly contributed to the science community’s understanding of seagrasses and the factors that threaten their survival. There is now a new scientist at the program’s helm and he is using lessons learned from the past to guide the research forward. Join us as Dr. Chris Patrick, Assistant Professor at VIMS, discusses what we have learned about seagrasses over four decades, the challenges that lay ahead, and how his team is working to understand and address those challenges.


Registration is required for access to this online webinar. After Hours lectures are designed for an adult audience, but all ages are welcome to watch. Attendees will be able to ask questions via the Zoom chat feature during a Q&A session after the presentation.
