Join us at The Science Café. At The Science Café, people join to mix and mingle with intellectuals and the like-minded, all in a comfortable, Café setting. The setting is informal, the coffee is piping hot and free, and you don’t have to go out to a museum or University lecture hall in order to ask the experts and get questions answered on the science issues in the current events.
Best of all, the events are free and are held on a wide range of different topics. So come join us!
There are many different Science Café programs throughout the U.S., and around the world! Following is a little roundup of the various science cafes you can attend:

ScienceBlog.com has no paywalls, no sponsored content, and no agenda beyond getting the science right. Every story here is written to inform, not to impress an advertiser or push a point of view.
Good science journalism takes time — reading the papers, checking the claims, finding researchers who can put findings in context. We do that work because we think it matters.
