Event Description

Full Description:
The modern world would not be modern at all without the understandings and technology enabled by science. Science affects us all, every day of the year, from the moment we wake up, all day long, and through the night. Your GPS, the weather report, the clothes you wear, the bus you ride in, your decision to eat a baked potato instead of chips, your cell phone, the antibiotics that treat your sore throat, the clean water that comes from your tap, and the light that you turn off at the end of the day have all been brought to you courtesy of science. Our audience will be challenged to try imagining a day without scientific progress. Based on their own remarkable achievements and ongoing endeavours, our panel will demonstrate how science affects us all, every day of the year.
