Prepare to be entranced by live music, zoological oddities, wandering scientists, and amazing food and drink as the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery comes alive after dark on Friday 16th and Saturday 17th August in Hobart. For this 2019 Science Week special we chatted to some of the people that help bring this captivating event alive, including Dr Margo Adler, the founder of Beaker Street; two scientists who are delivering engaging talks on the main stage, Associate Professor Barbara Holland and Dr Indrani Mukherjee; a musical genius who will be showing off his newly invented instrument at the event, Dr Alon Ilsar; and an amiable wandering scientist with a love for jellyfish, Dr Lisa-ann Gershwin. Tune in to learn all about what’s in store at this year’s pop-up science bar, Beaker Street.
