Join Let's Talk Science Outreach at the University of Guelph on February 11 for a panel event to celebrate UN's International Women and Girls in STEM Day. This panel will feature University of Guelph students and scientists working in various STEM fields. Panelists will provide a brief background about their journey into STEM and their experience as a student or scientist in a STEM field. We welcome and encourage questions from the audience!

The Solar Systems Stroll is a physically-distanced science walk through town (locations: Guelph and Fergus) and hosted by Royal City Science, an outreach initiative led by U of G physics experts Joanne O'Meara and Orbax. Using the virtual map (easy option) or coded clues (challenge option), families will find planetary stations positioned at scaled distances from the Sun. At each planetary station, junior scientists will be able to scan a QR code that reveals information about the planet, as well as instructions for a cosmically fun experiment at each site.

Join an engaging talk on the popular Netflix documentary, The Social Dilemma, with Carter Cousineau from U of G’s Centre for Advancing Responsible and Ethical AI (CARE-AI).
