Zoom: Digitizing over 1 MILLION California Herbarium Specimens 5/11

from Yerba Buena CNPS

Dr. Sarah Jacobs is currently leading a program to digitize over 1 MILLION California Herbarium Specimens at California Academy of Sciences.

Some specimens were collected over 100 years ago and heroically saved by Alice Eastwood from a burning Academy building in the aftermath of the 1906 SF Earthquake.

May 11, 2023 at 7:30 PM, Dr. Jacobs joins CNPS Yerba Buena’s monthly speaker program to describe this leading edge scientific process and share fascinating information about these super-valuable specimens.
