TRUtalks at TRU Deli and Wine Bar, 114 Henderson St, Chapel Hill. Alyssa will discuss antibiotic resistance in the Galapagos.

TRUtalks is a science communication & outreach series that aims to make science accessible to the public. Once a month, at TRU Deli & Wine Bar in Chapel Hill, we host a scientist who discusses their research in a ~20 minute talk to a general audience. We then open it up for an extended Q&A session to encourage public interaction with real scientists! We try to assume only a high school-level science education so that talks can be understood by scientists and non-scientists alike. It is our belief that science is too often communicated only to a PhD-level audience. In this era of public misinterpretation and general mistrust of science, it is incredibly important to bring current scientific findings to a wider audience.
