Science Pub RVA

Curious Minds – Short Talks – Spirited Discussions

Since 2012, Science Pub RVA has been connecting curious minds and creative scientists (and scientific thinkers including writers, artists, and historians of science) over a sip of some sort.

We do this by helping researchers communicate what they do, what they know, and why it matters.

Then, in casual spaces where no science background is expected, we introduce them to audiences that enjoy exploring ideas. To date, 72 alumni (see names and topics on our Cheers & Thanks page) have “walked into a bar for science”.

Our five-season partnership with VPM’s Science Matters initiative concluded in August 2020.

During the Fall of 2020, we’ll reflect on our path forward —
how we will continue to serve the community, serve scientists, and financially sustain our work.
