The Clinical and Translational Science Center Community Engagement Program developed the Science Café speaker series to provide a casual, safe space for lay audiences to have conversations with scientists. The Science Café is aimed at engaging the public in a discussion about research, current events, and other aspects of science that have current public interest.
Science Cafés are live—and lively—events that take place in casual settings such as pubs and coffeehouses, are open to everyone, and feature an engaging conversation with a scientist about a particular topic.
