South Lakes

Science and Technology

Co-ordinators: Ed Tipping
Meetings: Monthly last Friday 2.00-3.30pm Castle Street Centre

Our meetings usually consist of a talk by a group member or guest speaker, followed by questions and discussion. Occasionally we make visits to places of scientific or technological interest.

In the recent past, the talks have covered such varied topics as genetic engineering, quantum theory, Earth's formation & evolution, radiocarbon, Morecambe Bay tides, childhood leukaemia around Sellafield, and salt manufacture.

New members are very welcome, even more so if they can offer a suitable talk!

You can contact me, using the messaging "Eagle" at top right or at the bottom of this page.
