VI Cycle of Lectures at the Zoology Museum

Many technological inventions are inspired by animals and their abilities.

Among many examples, we can mention navigation devices inspired by birds; the production of bulletproof vests and aerospace components inspired by spider webs; and the creation of a super glue inspired by the feet of a lizard.

How would this be possible without someone studying birds, spiders, and lizards?

The answer lies in the importance of basic science, essential for the advancement of knowledge and science.

In 2023, the 6th Cycle of Lectures at the Zoology Museum of Unesc, in partnership with the Biological Sciences Program, aims to address the importance of Zoology as a basic science, focused on understanding fauna to expand scientific knowledge.
