äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ Science Cafe, a collaboration between äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ and The Ohio State University, will begin its spring season on Feb. 7 at 7 p.m. in the Excelsior Room above Spoon Market & Deli. The program aims to provide a forum in the äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ community for dialogue between the public and scientists about contemporary topics and hosts monthly events throughout the academic year.
The spring semester series will begin with a talk titled “The Science of OSU in äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾,â€� featuring speaker Kristina Boone, professor and director of The Ohio State University’s Agricultural Technical Institute. Boone, whose work focuses on communication around food and agriculture, will discuss current events in higher education and on campus at The Ohio State University’s College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences.
Occurring the first Wednesday each month at Spoon Market & Deli, future äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ Science Café events will include:
The äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ Science Café was established in 2013 Laura Sirot, associate professor of biology at äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾, and Jeff LeJeune, professor of veterinary preventative medicine at The Ohio State University’s College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences. All events are free and open to the public. Spoon Market & Deli will provide light appetizers, and additional food and beverages will be available for purchase.
