Location: SpeakEZ Lounge | 600 Monroe Ave. Grand Rapids NW 49503
Date: Thursday, July 14
Time: 8 p.m.
Event Description: All successful pathogens need to be able to transmit themselves from their current host to a new host. To achieve this goal some pathogens have evolved the ability to manipulate their hosts in a variety of bizarre and interesting ways including dramatically changing host behavior. Come join us to discuss cat-loving rats, zombie ants, and self-destructing crickets!
