Scientists estimate that only 30 percent of Earth’s biodiversity is known. Due to human activities, habitats across the world are changing, or being destroyed.
Amphibians are particularly vulnerable to habitat changes, and are becoming extinct at alarming rates. S. D. Biju will discuss his 30 years of research on the frogs of India and Asia and highlight the key role that scientists play in the conservation of species.
S. D. Biju (Sathyabhama Das Biju) is Professor, Dept. of Environmental Studies, University of Delhi; Harvard Radcliffe Institute Hrdy Fellow, Radcliffe Inst. for Advanced Study; Assoc., Museum of Comparative Zoology; and Dept. of Organismic & Evolutionary Biology, Harvard.
