Pint Of Science

WHAT IS PINT OF SCIENCE?

Our aim is to deliver science talks in a fun, engaging and approachable way by bringing them to a pub close to you. We will bring you the most interesting and knowledgeable scientists around to give a talk about their research. You just sit back, sip your drink, listen and then you can either ask questions, have a drink with them or even tell them about your crazy idea to save humanity (we can’t promise they will listen, but hey, why not give it a shot?). See http://www.pintofscience.ie/.
