Real/Fake Science

Six presenters, six topics, some will be fabricated and some factual, some scientists and some charlatans. Faced with uncertainty can you sort the fact and the fiction?

At this one-of-a-kind interactive mystery science event, guests are invited to surf the line between fact and fiction. Listen closely as presenters representing a range of scientific disciplines regale you with tales of real and fake science. Can you tell the difference? Can you distinguish the scientists from the actors? Participants will compete for the distinction of Most Discerning! Topics will include the evolutionary basis of human mating rituals, the spread of water borne illnesses, effects of trauma on child development, and new advances in space technology. The science will be fantastic and some will be phony! Be prepared to listen closely and keep your smartphones and internet gadgets stowed away.
