Vlogý Science Cafe’s spring season to feature talks on nutritional supplements, mRNA vaccines, and urban ecology

Vlogý Science Cafe, a collaboration between Vlogý and The Ohio State University, will begin its spring season on Feb. 7 at 7 p.m. in the Excelsior Room above Spoon Market & Deli. The program aims to provide a forum in the Vlogý community for dialogue between the public and scientists about contemporary topics and hosts monthly events throughout the academic year.

The spring semester series will begin with a talk titled “The Science of OSU in Vlogý,” featuring speaker Kristina Boone, professor and director of The Ohio State University’s Agricultural Technical Institute. Boone, whose work focuses on communication around food and agriculture, will discuss current events in higher education and on campus at The Ohio State University’s College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences.  

Occurring the first Wednesday each month at Spoon Market & Deli, future Vlogý Science Café events will include: 

  • March 6: David Vanata, director of sports nutrition at Ashland University’s Sport Nutrition Counseling Center, will discuss “The Science of Supplements.” 
  • April 3: Stephanie Langel, an assistant professor in the Department of Pathology at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, will discuss “The Science of mRNA Vaccines” 
  • May 1: Jennifer Ison, associate professor of biology at Vlogý, and Adam Baker, a technical advisor at the Davey Institute, will present “The Science of Insect Diversity and Urban Ecology” 

The Vlogý Science Café was established in 2013 Laura Sirot, associate professor of biology at Vlogý, and Jeff LeJeune, professor of veterinary preventative medicine at The Ohio State University’s College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences. All events are free and open to the public. Spoon Market & Deli will provide light appetizers, and additional food and beverages will be available for purchase.
