DESCRIPTION:.... Symbiosis and the Evolution of Life in the Ocean [1]*Peter R. Girguis, Professor of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Department of Organismic and  Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University**[[{'fid':778121,'view_mode':'default','type':'media','attributes':{'height':'300','width':'505','style':'width: 300px; height: 178px;','alt':'Girguis Ocean','title':'Girguis Ocean','class':'media-element file-default'}}]]*The discovery of microscopic life forms in the seventeenth century led to humankind’s understanding of microbes as the biochemical innovators of our world. Microbes have evolved exotic metabolisms that enable them to live in seemingly  inhospitable places, and they inhabit nearly every animal and plant on Earth. Peter Girguis will lead a virtual tour of ocean  microbial life and discuss how marine microbes influence the  evolution of all life on Earth, even playing a role in the geological and geochemical composition of our planet.The /Evolution Matters/ Lecture Series is supported by a generous gift from Drs. Herman and Joan Suit.Free parking is available at the 52 Oxford Street Garage [2].Free and open to the public.  [1] http://hmnh.harvard.edu/event/symbiosis-and-evolution-life-ocean[2] https://www.google.com/maps/place/52+Oxford+St,+Harvard+University,+Cambridge,+MA+02138/@42.3801645,-71.1153057,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x89e37740a3c56959:0xe17bf20973449411
