The Bortree Lecture Series is a program offered by the Department of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences that invites distinguished Life Science researchers to present their findings to Penn State students and faculty.
The series can be taken for credit, but is also open to anyone else who would like to attend. The presentations are free to the public, and are usually accompanied by department-sponsored lunches for further discussion with the presenters.
