Video: Happy Hour with Dr. Luis Chiappe

Every other week, pour your favorite cocktail and tune in for a live-streamed discussion with an NHMLAC curator or researcher. Explore the newest research projects that continue to be conducted by museum staff, see rare specimens hand-picked by our presenter, and get your questions answered in real time.

DR. LUIS CHIAPPE

Our first event featured Dr. Luis Chiappe, Senior Vice President of Research and Collections and Gretchen Augustyn Director of the NHMLAC Dinosaur Institute. He transported us to the world of field expeditions - showing a baby sauropod skull, among other exciting specimens, as he discusses the intimate lives of these long necked giants and the small, fragile offspring they produce.
