If you're looking for something brainy to do, the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, 2001 Colorado Blvd., has you covered.
Jessica Metcalf, assistant professor of animal sciences at Colorado State University, will be there to discuss her work using microbes preserved in coprolites (ancient fecal material) to characterize the gut microbiome of ancient humans, allowing her to map how our intestines have changed over time. The presentation starts at 7 p.m. in the Phipps Theater, so yes, there's a visual element to this microscopic journey.
Tickets are $12 for members and $15 for non-members.
