A reminder of the science discussion hour format:

Your GAPS committee and EDI subcommittee is starting up a new idea we like to call science discussion hour. The idea is to create an interdisciplinary space where people can practice conference talks, read and discuss journal papers or science-adjacent articles, share cool parts of their own work, and present/chat about interesting science ideas. We will also enjoy some snacks and beverages courtesy of GAPS 🙂
