Science Café
Our regular Science Café returns once more with a veritable cornucopia of science.
Each speaker has a quarter of an hour to talk, then you, the audience, take over.
Whether you want to grill the speaker about generalities or pose a particular problem, the floor is yours.
Our café is just the place to sample some new science –
and something from the bar!
