The Atlanta Science Tavern arranges friendly and fun gatherings where non-scientists come to discuss interesting and relevant science news with science professionals.
Be sure to visit http://www.AtlantaScienceTavern.com to see our Wiki for more background information on our group.
The Atlanta Science Tavern is based on http://www.ScienceCafes.org, the international Science Café's movement sponsored by PBS and NOVA scienceNOW.
Science cafés involve a lively conversation with a scientist about current science topics. They are open to everyone, and take place in casual settings like pubs and coffeehouses.
At a café you can...
* learn about the latest issues in science
* chat with a scientist in plain language
* meet new friends
* speak your mind
* talk with your mouth full
Most of all, everyone is welcome regardless of knowledge level, and there are no silly questions!

This is our first scheduled meetup in the big room (with the bar), which will be much nicer than the North Avenue Room. So come and show Manuels that we can pull in a crowd to merit this space. We will be charging $4 instead of the usual $2, but it is well worth it for the room.
