Fancy a pint of science?

Why not combining a beer withwith hearing about the huge variety of research going on in Bristol? That's what researchers from the University of Bristol and UWE thought and they are converting pubs all over Bristol to an informal scientific chat-area where it is OK to have a pint in hand: Pint of Science.

Pubs such as Greenbank, Hophouse, Hen and Chicken, Rise/Friska, Full Moon and The Hole in the Wall are hosting a total of 18 events between 18-20 May 2015. Six sciences will be covered, from Robots in the "Rise of the Machines" event, to how we combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the "Bacteria: Friend or Foe" evening.

Events will not be average science lectures but scientific showcase in a more informal, relaxed and fun way. They are aiming at keeping events friendly and informal with demonstrations, quizzes, debates and Q&A where no scientific background will be necessary.

Events at Rise/Friska, Full Moon and The Hole in the Wall are sold out at the moment but there are still tickets for the rest of the events (check here).
