Dinner@Dana: Life in the Deep Freeze

Hostile, yet breathtakingly beautiful, the Antarctic is full of extremes. Discover how scientists live and carry out vital research in the coldest, highest and windiest continent on Earth.

Engineer Mike Rose works for the British Antarctic Survey at the sharp end - designing and running scientific equipment that is crucial for a complete understanding of Antarctica and its importance to our planet. His work has taken him to Antarctica 11 times, once for 27 months straight!

Join Dinner@Dana as Mike shows us the reality of life in the Antarctic, and explains why science in this most remote of places is relevant to us all.

This evening costs £13 per person, which includes a two-course meal and a drink.

Café Scientifique:
Dinner@Dana is part of the Café Scientifique network. Meetings aim to stay outside of the traditional academic context by creating a relaxed and informal atmosphere in which to discuss scientific issues. These Cafés provide a place for everyone to explore the latest ideas in science, technology and medicine.
