Join Chris Kirmaier, Ph.D. for a photographic journey into the fascinating, beautiful, and weird world of photosynthetic life. Zooming down into a leaf, we’ll find the solar energy engine that powers the abundance of life on earth. Almost all living things on earth depend on photosynthesis for their food and/or energy resources. From small to large, the variety of photosynthetic life is just plain amazing.
This entire talk is in PowerPoint.
