• What time are the talks?
Doors open at 5:45 pm, talks begin at 6:00. There is a reception from 7-8 pm.
• Where are the talks?
All talks are in the Butcher Auditorium (room A115, next to the main floor coffee shop) at the Jennie Smoly Caruthers Biotechnology Building on CU’s East Campus. The address is 3415 Colorado Ave. Signs inside the building will direct you to the auditorium.
• How much does this cost?
Nothing! It’s free! You must register in advance, though (see link above).
• Do you have to be a science expert to understand these talks?
No! These talks are specifically designed to reach a broad background.
• Will there be a question-and-answer period?
Yes! The last 15’ of the talks are reserved for audience questions.
• Do I have to be part of CU?
No! We encourage the public to attend.
• What if I couldn't get tickets? Can I still attend?
There will be an overflow room available for those who were unable to get tickets. You will not be able to ask questions in that room, but will be able to watch the talk live and are welcome to attend the reception.
• What is the reception afterwards?
This is a time for the audience to mingle with each other and with our scientists. We will provide snacks and non-alcoholic beverages.
• Can children attend?
Children may attend, although young children may not enjoy the talks as much as older teens and adults. CU does offer exciting scientific programming directed towards younger children that we encourage you to consider.
