Real Conversations

What is the nature of consciousness? How do our shopping habits impact the environment? Why is Einstein so famous?

Real Conversations hosts discussions that dive deep into science, art, or advocacy. Guided by a speaker with a passion for their area of expertise, we share knowledge and ideas — as well as food and drink. 

Our events are free and open to everyone. Join us for interesting conversations or volunteer to lead a discussion yourself!

Previous talks include:

  • How to Create Dance with Artificial Intelligence by Mathilde Papillon
  • Harnessing Biological Tools to Treat Polycystic Kidney Disease by Meg Schimmel
  • Leveraging Neuroscience for Women’s Health by Elle Murata & Hannah Grotzinger
