Roys Lecture: Chef Joseph Yoon, Edible Insect Ambassador

Chef Joseph Yoon, world-renowned chef and thought leader in entomophagy, or eating insects, will share the science of insects with the sustainability and health aspects of eating insects.

There will be an opportunity to eat food prepared by Chef Yoon that will include insect ingredients.

This opportunity is made possible by the Lawrence H. Roys Endowment. This endowment at Augustana College honors the memory of Lawrence Roys as an engineer, businessman and nationally acclaimed natural scientist. Throughout his lifetime, Roys frequently presented lectures at Augustana on his studies of Mayan architecture in Central America. The Roys Endowment funds lectures by visiting scholars in the field of natural science.
