Science Cafés

WHAT ARE SCIENCE CAFÉS?

Science Cafés are intended to answer community questions regarding environmental health concerns. This is accomplished by creating a space where the general population has access to the professionals addressing these concerns. It is our goal to provide an environment truly tailored to community concerns, safety, and impact. 

HOW CAN I GET INVOLVED?

Science Cafés require a large group effort to acquire a venue, advertise the event, recruit guest speakers, and select topics of community interest. If you're interested in getting involved or learning more about these events, please reach out to our team through the form found at the bottom of this page. 

To be notified of our next Science Café, please add yourself to our contact list.

  • Asthma and Allergies

HOW HAS THE PANDEMIC AFFECTED SCIENCE CAFÉS?
