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!
