Solving the World's Challenges: Invasive Species

Three experts from across campus will each discuss their work related to Invasive Species and respond to questions from attendees during the #FunkPanel2026. Their work focuses on Illinois invasive species issues with an emphasis on management and prevention; threats to Illinois agriculture, forestry and the environment; as well as ongoing research on biological invasions. This in-person and online panel presentation on Tuesday, April 21, 2026 from 2:30-3:30 p.m. (Central) will be an opportunity for people to come together with the Funk ACES Library to learn about and discuss research and initiatives led by members of our campus community.

  • Attend in Person:

We invite you to attend the panel in-person on the 2nd floor of the Funk ACES Library for an opportunity to talk with the panelists and other attendees during the 30-minute reception following the presentation.  Also for in-person attendees, we will have a drawing for two books related to environmental justice. 

  • Attend via Zoom:

We are providing a Zoom option for people to attend the panel virtually. Free Registration for remote participants.
