Gaming @ the Library
NPT ScienceNOW is a face to face, informal conversation about current science topics. Each meeting is focused on an interesting, lively discussion led by an expert in the field. It’s about exchanging points of views and appreciating differences. It’s about learning and sharing science for all. Meetings will be held monthly on the first Tuesday at noon. On April 6, our topic will be Personalized Medicine. Whether tackling how science can solve global problems or help us to understand how the universe works, these gatherings are NOT lectures. They are an opportunity for you to share your opinions, ideas and thoughts with other science lovers and to meet local scientists in a fun, casual setting. Bring a lunch and join us for this "Science Off the Shelf" series. This program series is co-sponsored by Nashville Public Television.
