If you are excited by science - but not necessarily a science professional - and you live in the Atlanta area, then the Atlanta Science Tavern is the meetup for you.

Our program is centered on a monthly meeting at Manuel's Tavern, which features a speaker - typically a scientist from a nearby university or research center - who presents his or her work to a smart general audience of science enthusiasts. Thanks to our sponsor, Abrupt Media, these talks are available to a wider audience as podcasts on iTunes.

We also host once-a-month presentations as part of our ongoing Young Researchers Series, which features talks by graduate students and postdocs from local universities. In addition, we organize social outings and field trips that provide opportunities for our members to experience science as it expresses itself in the community at large.

See you at the Tavern!
