May research events
Pint of Science – May 18 to 21
This is the 2nd year for Pint of Science in Madison.
Pint of Science USA is a national chapter of the international festival that brings some of the most brilliant scientists to your local bar of cafe to discuss their latest research and findings with you. You don’t need any prior knowledge, and this is your chance to meet the people responsible for the future of science (and have a drink with them). The festival runs over a few days in May every year.
Tickets are $2.
