Science Iowa

It’s fun to when a groundhog emerges from its den to speculate about its implications for the weather, but we’ll stick to what actual meteorologists say.

While you wait to see what the sleepy woodchuck does, please join Science Iowa for its regular meeting on Thursday, Feburary 1 at 1 p.m. With the Iowa legislature back in session, we’ll discuss what science-related issues are before lawmakers and what position we might take on them, including HPV vaccines and the “science of reading.”

We’ll also get an update on the Iowa Science Policy Candidate Survey and June’s Science Festival Trail. We’re working to obtain a sponsor to help defray the event’s expense.

In the meantime, you can help defray our regular expenses with a donation to Science Iowa. Our web hosting costs us $6 a month, plus another $20 annually. Just a few dollars can help us keep that going – or help us as we plan for a new website. You can help us continue our work with a contribution here. Any amount helps.

We hope to see you Thursday. The Zoom information is below.
