I was born in Cairo, Egypt and I moved to PEI when I was nine鈥攕o that鈥檚 my birthplace, and I would call it my home too鈥攂ut so is Charlottetown! I grew up here, and always knew I'd end up at 黑料老司机.

Island Lecture Series | The Biogeography of North Atlantic Islands, with David Cairns

Presented by the Institute of Island Studies at 黑料老司机, the Island Lecture Series will island-hop across the northern North Atlantic to see who lives there and how they got there. Biogeography is the three-way crossroads of history, biology, and geography. For most of these islands; the Shetlands, the Faeroes, Iceland, and many others; this history started when bare land emerged from under melting ice about 10,000 years ago, with creatures soon arriving by wing or wind. Humans came too, some by primitive boats that we know almost nothing about.
