Cafe scinetifique

The sixth meeting will be on Monday 13th June at 7pm at The Fighting Cocks.

The speaker will be Brian Clarke who works at the University of Surrey in the Centre for Environmental Health and Engineering. He will be talking about 'Water Aid '.

Brian worked for many years in the water industry and became very interested in the problem of how you deliver a supply of continuous clean water to people in a disaster area where there is no infrastructure.

As a result of his research into the problem he has founded a Master of Science degree course in the subject at the University of Surrey. I heard Brian give a very good and interesting talk on Water Aid two years ago at the Science Festival when it was held at the University of Surrey.


Café Scientifique evenings are free, but it is customary to ask participants at the end of the evening for a donation towards the cost of the speaker's meal and/or travel expenses.
