Cafe Scientifique - 5th December - for all researchers!

I would like to invite you all to the first Café Scientifique evening of this academic year! It is on Wed 5th December, from 6pm (until 8 or 8:30ish) in The Shield on the Charterhouse Square campus.

Café Scientifique evenings are regular events for PhD researchers and research staff. The idea of the event is to create an informal, relaxed atmosphere where researchers from all disciplines can meet and chat, and also present their work and ideas to a general, friendly audience. A typical evening would consist of short presentations from researchers, wine/soft drinks and pizza, and other activities such as a quiz, a debate or a creative challenge. The event on the 5th will have a festive theme, with mince pies, mulled wine and a seasonal quiz!

 The talks at this event will be:

Ping-pong neutrons Dominic Carter, Physics
Bedtime stories: the lilliputian who helped the giants Daniela Aflorei, William Harvey Research Institute
Giving up the Ghost: Hoping for a miracle in the Dhofar Mountains James Borrell, Biological & Chemical Sciences
 Accounting for Carbon and Commitment: the case of the FTSE 100 John Malamatenios, Business & Management

If you would like to come, please can you book a place here. This is so I know how many people to order drinks and pizza for! Hope to see lots of you on the 5th.
