Activity: Talk or presentation typesPublic talk, debate, discussion

Description

Pint of Science is a worldwide science festival which brings researchers to your local pub/cafe/space to share their scientific discoveries with you - no prior knowledge required.

Edwin's contribution was a talk and Q&A on disgust, with the following summary:

Why is poop so foul? How do ghastly odours make our stomach churn? Can you learn to overcome feelings of revulsion if you’re in a profession with lots of daily grime, or a parent to young children? Dr Edwin Dalmaijer from the University of Bristol will answer these questions in a talk on the surprisingly interesting science of disgust.
