Reviving the Woolly Mammoth to Slow Permafrost Thaw

January 31, 2024 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

This event is now SOLD OUT. Thank you for your interest!

Join us for an evening where the future meets the past to learn about how Kryotek and Colossal Biosciences are working to use cutting-edge synthetic biology to bring back the Woolly Mammoth from extinction as well as how reintroducing it to the arctic can help prevent further thawing of our permafrost and greenhouse gas release.

Our speaker will be Jim Coates, partner at Kryotek and Conservation Advisor at Colossal Biosciences. Jim’s mission is to conceive and develop technologies that help the world adapt to climate change. His focal areas are natural hazards (wildfire, flood, landslide), permafrost and mineral exploration.

Light refreshments will be served.
