From May 13 to May 15, a series of talks with different speakers will be held in a bar in the capital.
Science and technology are constantly evolving, so the way scientific discoveries are disseminated must also be reinvented. What better way to do it than in a relaxed atmosphere and with a “beer” in hand? This is precisely the spirit behind Pint of Science, an event that fuses the fascination of science with the informal atmosphere of a social meeting place.
Pint of Science is an international scientific dissemination festival that aims to communicate science to the public in an interesting, attractive and accessible way, bringing researchers and scientists to bars, pubs or breweries. It is carried out simultaneously in 500 cities around the world, among which eight Argentine cities will participate.
In San Miguel de Tucumán it will be on May 13, 14 and 15, from 6:45 p.m. in a bar located at Catamarca 380. Admission to the event is free and only registration must be made through the festival website: pintofsciencear .com.
