Each month, Professor Jared Shaw with the UC Davis Department of Chemistry hosts the Davis Science Café, featuring scientists who are studying some of today’s cutting edge topics. This month’s speaker is Prof. Jim Carey in the UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology who studies lifespan and biodemographics of insects. Invite a friend, and get here early to grab a seat at G. Street Wunderbar. Let’s drink to science!
