Speaker: Judy Helgen, Biologist

When deformed frogs began showing up around the world 17 years ago, alarm bells went off. What caused such deformities, and could this pose a threat to humans? Helgen was at ground zero when the epidemic began, and her insights will show us why she is unwavering in her quest to learn what is happening to the frogs and what it means for the environment and the world. -Beth Montgomery
