This week, Science Cafe heads south to the tropical paradise of the Bahamas. (Don’t you wish we could all be PhD students who just had to head south for their research?)

PhD candidate Karen Murchie will talk about her research around the Bahamian bonefish and its ability to live in tropical tidal flats environments. Fishermen (fisherpeople?) are always after these swimmers, who also play an important ecological role. Find out why they are so essential and so popular this Wednesday, Nov. 25 at 6:30 p.m, down at the Wild Oat (817 Bank).

Science Cafe brings you your bi-weekly science fix down at the Wild Oat, and is sponsored by Carleton’s Faculty of Science.
