What we’re about
The Pint of Science Thailand (www.pintofscienceth.com) is part of an international group (Pint of Science) for anyone interested in science, science communication, as well as the ethics and social aspects of science. Please join if you want to hear about the newest research or discoveries in science or simply enjoy the magic of physics, chemistry, biology etc. We also welcome you if are a scientist, a science communicator or science teacher yourself and want to share your work in a relaxed environment. This group aims to bring bite-size (or rather pintb-size) science into cafes and pubs in a fun and entertaining way, thereby making science more widely accessible. It is also an opportunity for scientists, health researchers, science teachers and science communicators in Thailand and the region to get to know each other. The organisers of Pint of Science Thailand are part of the Mahidol Oxford Tropical Medicine Research Unit, collaboration between University of Oxford and Mahidol University.
