Cafe scinetifique

The speaker will be Dr. Patricia Hunt from the Department of Chemistry at Imperial College London. Patricia is a Reader in Computational and Theoretical Chemistry with her own Research Group. She will be talking about 'The Unique Properties of Water'. Her talk will be based on a talk she took part in on the Radio 4 programme 'In Our Time'.

Water has unsuspected properties new to science such as creating 14 different forms of ice.

Venue
The Regency Suite is above the Conservative Club in Shanklin in Palmerston Road just off the High Street.

The nearest car parks are in Landguard Road and Orchardleigh Road, both only two or three minutes walk to the Conservative Club. Parking is free after 6pm.

As we have to pay a rent for the facilities, we have to ask for a donation of at least £3 on the door to make sure we cover all our expenses. i.e. the rent, cost of speakers' travel expenses and a meal, plus overnight accommodation if needed.
