A free public event at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Orange will demonstrate how science is part of every day life during National Science Week. It will be an evening of film and fruit when scientist Dr Yann Guisard pairs up with fellow CSU science lecturer Dr Scott Andrew to present a ‘Scinema’ event on the evening of Wednesday 17 August from 6pm. Academics from the School of Agricultural and Wine Sciences will guide visitors to a lab where they will be working with strawberry DNA. The half hour workshop will be followed by a 45 minute movie chosen by Dr Guisard and Dr Andrew from the travelling science film festival. “The evening is an introduction to practical science, demonstrating that science isn’t out of people’s reach,” said Dr Guisard. “People do science every day when they cook - and even when they fill their car with petrol.”
