What Is Cancer? at Bavarian Beerhouse

A event on Wednesday 21st May. The event starts at 20:00.


The Pint of Science festival aims to deliver interesting, fun and relevant cutting-edge science talks in an accessible format to the public - in the pub! We want to provide a platform which allows people to discuss research with the people who carry it out. It is a non-profit organisation run by volunteers and was established by a community of postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers in 2012.

The festival takes place over three days simultaneously in multiple pubs, featuring researchers from the University of Bristol.
