Science Cafés

What is a Science Café?
Science café are events in casual meeting places like pubs or coffee shops that bring together the general public with a scientist to talk about current science topics.  Anyone can go to a science cafe and everyone is welcome!

The Center for Chemical Evolution & the Science Café Movement
Since the establishment of our Center, our members scientists have been actively involved in giving talks and leading discussions at science cafes. Begining with "The Origin of Life, It's Just Chemistry," hosted by the Georgia ACS, the Center for Chemical Evolution has since become partners with the Atlanta Science Tavern and Science Cafes at the Atlanta Botanical Garden.

  • Atlanta Science Tavern at Manuel's Tavern
  • 4th Saturday of every month at 7pm.  Register for each event on their meetup site!
  • Science Cafes at Atlanta Botanical Garden
  • 3rd Thursday of the month (May - October) at 7pm during Cocktails in the Garden.  This year, the Center for Chemical Evolution is proud to sponsor the summer series on evolution. For more information and a complete list of speakers, visit their website!

If you are part of an existing Science Café, or starting a new one, and would like one of our member scientists to lead a discussion, contact us.
