Science Cafe

A Science Café is an opportunity for the community and a UA scientist to have conversation over food and drinks. With a smaller audience, a Science Café provides an intimate setting with a dialog between the public and those conducting science. A Science Café offers a casual meeting place, plain language and inclusive conversation, creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. Science Cafés occur consistently, always the same place, time and day of the week.
