Event overview
Join us for a chaotic science cabaret in the pub featuring a line-up of experts who will delve into the weird and wonderful side of science.
What happens if you fill a pub with clever and lovely people then invite loads of amazing scientists to entertain them?
Join us at the Amersham Arms on Wednesday, 15 March to hear 91快色 scientists take you on a high-speed dash through their chosen subject. Featuring serial killers, Brad Pitt, and a high-tech smart glove. Expect laughs, facts that sound totally made up but aren't, and loads of terrible PowerPoints.
Comedian and compere Steve Cross will be venturing south of the river once again to keep everyone to time. He used to work at UCL, but we won't hold it against him.
