What we’re about

We are a group of intellectuals and curious minds. Join us to listen and share, give a talk or presentation, spread knowledge and ideas, lead a discussion, receive feedback on a work in progress, find collaborators for a project, and more.

We meet 1st Sundays on Zoom at 1:00pm (Eastern Time), and additional meetings on/offline can be arranged.

Hope to see you among us soon!
