Get a taste of the current scientific research happening at the University of Utah. Meet a selection of fascinating scientists who have prepared a smorgasbord of science for you to savor in an informal, interactive cafe-style setting. Each scientist will dish out their research in 12 minutes or less, then lead a lively, 10-minute group discussion.  Science Cafe events take place September - November, and are held on the 3rd Wednesday of the month in the evening. Attending a Science Cafe event can be counted as volunteer service hours under the "Continuing Education" assignment.
