🧬 Double Helix and Friends Trivia Night
Join us for a fun night of science and friendly competition with the community of life science supporters!
Jointly hosted by Genome Alberta and The Metabolomics Innovation Centre (TMIC), we invite you to come out for Double Helix and Friends Trivia Night, an evening filled with fascinating facts, team camaraderie, and the opportunity to connect with others over nerdy knowledge.
Special guests, James Harynuk (TMIC) and Benjamin Borrie (MacEwan University), will give a short presentation on the science of beer, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how research and innovation shape these remarkable brews.
Please note: All are welcome! Trivia questions are science-themed, and random knowledge will be your biggest asset, so unfortunately, having a PhD will not give you an advantage.
