Pint of Science is an international science communication festival which aims to connect academic researchers with their surrounding community in an informal, low stakes setting. Two talks will be held at Dropbear brewery under the theme of "Our Body" and audience participation is encouraged! 

How do our bodies move, heal and make sense of the world? This event explores biology through two very different lenses. One talk reveals how fluid and exercise shape the Achilles tendon, using imaging to improve rehab. The other explores vision through the eyes and brain of an octopus, showing how studying unusual bodies can help us better understand our own.

University of Oregon graduate students Jarod Forer and Angelique Allen will present.

Check out the May 19 presentation: Our Universe: From Molecules to Galaxies.
