Biosphere 2 is an iconic architectural structure that allows scientists to conduct research that can be done nowhere else on the planet and do it in front of the general public. In this seminar, we will explore both the on-going research at Biosphere 2, as well as what the implications are of the underlying concepts and design for the way that we humans interface with Biosphere 1. The seminars will include a field trip to Biosphere 2 early in the semester and guest speakers from different times in the Biosphere 2 history.
