Science on Tap: 'Food for Thought: How Retail Spaces Shape Our Choices and the Planet'

From: The Center for Communicating Science

Join us on Jan. 23 at 5:30 p.m. at Rising Silo Brewery, 2315 Glade Road, Blacksburg, for Science on Tap: "Food for Thought: How Retail Spaces Shape Our Choices and the Planet."

Grocery shopping is complicated — maybe not for the reasons you think. Join Ph.D. candidate Maria DeNunzio to explore how the spaces where we live, work, shop, and play shape our food choices and affect our health and the health of the planet. Discover what we consider an "ideal" food store — and how different versions of ideal can serve a community.

Free and open to the public. Hosted by the Center for Communicating Science at Virginia Tech and Virginia Tech's chapter of Sigma Xi.
