Cafe Sci Orlando announcements for 2014-02: still no adult cafe; Marine Mammals

[cafesciorl-annc]

What's up with Science Café?

In December, we learned Taste is closed and that we need to move to a new venue. We didn't have a cafe on New Year's Day because it was a national holiday. This month, Chad is out of town on business, and couldn't be here to manage starting Science Cafe in a new venue, so we're not having a adult cafe this month either.

Science Cafe for adults returns in March! The topic will be Preservation of Food, presented by Phil Geis, PhD microbiology and retiree after 30 years with Procter & Gamble.

"Marine Mammals"

This kid-friendly topic is presented at Orlando Public Library, at 6:30PM on Tuesday, February 11.

Graham A.J. Worthy, Ph.D, will discuss recent marine-mammal mortality in the Indian River Lagoon and how they relate to algal blooms. Dr. Worthy is Provost’s Distinguished Research Professor of Biology, Hubbs-Sea World Endowed Professor of Marine Mammalogy, and the Director of the Physiological Ecology and Bioenergetics Lab at the University of Central Florida.
