In this Café Scientifique session, Professor Usha Boolaky, Visiting Professor  of  Practice  at  the  NIHR  Innovation  Observatory in Newcastle, will be discussing the future of healthcare and addressing unmet needs.

Café Scientifique at ARC – Stockton’s only science café Café Scientifique has been bringing science and science-related subjects to the people of Stockton and surrounding areas for over 20 years. There’s no need to know anything about science to come to the Café, just be interested in the world around you and prepare to learn something new.

The Café is usually held at 7.45pm on the third Tuesday of the month. Guest speakers talk for 35-45 minutes and, following a short refreshment break, you can ask a question or comment using the roving mikes. The event usually finishes around 9.30pm.

The speakers are drawn from universities, health trusts and businesses across the region.

Where else can you find out about the latest in science and get to ask the burning questions you’ve always wanted to ask of someone at the leading edge of their work or research?

For a donation of just £6 (more if you can afford it and less if you can’t; students go free) you’re guaranteed to find out something new and experience the infectious passion of the speakers.
