Solicitation of presentations for Science Café


Science Café is a series of informal presentations and discussions that will take place during the International Polar Year (IPY), March 2007 through February 2009. We are soliciting presentations on topics from any polar discipline, including arts, lifestyle, engineering and natural sciences. Scientific and traditional speakers from any perspective are welcome. Science Cafés will take place throughout Fairbanks in coffee houses, pubs, restaurants and in the public library to bring together people of various backgrounds. If you would like to share your research or expertise in a thought-provoking manner then please contact Chris Petrich .

Science Café is an effort of the UA IPY Young Researchers' Network (YRN), supported by the UA IPY Steering Committee and the UAF Center of Research Services.
