"Buzzed Brains: The neuroscience of drinking beer" by the Neurobiology Department of Stony Brook University

Have you ever wondered why certain foods taste bitter, while others are sweet or savory? This experience of taste is more complex than it seems, and it plays a crucial role in our everyday food and beverage choices. In this session, we’ll dive deep into the science of taste and flavor perception, exploring how our senses work together to influence our preferences and dislikes.

Geek Talks are a collaboration between Fish Guy Photos and übergeek Brewing Company. This lecture series is a night of great beer, delicious food, and a wealth of knowledge shared by local naturalists, educators, researchers, and other geeks.

Festivities start at 700 pm, lecture starts at 800 pm
