Lectures on Tap @ The Gov
About
If you're a fiend for a YouTube video with your dinner, or are simply looking for a different way to get out of the house and learn something new to aid your cool Aunt/Uncle lore, this is made for you.Inspired by the original Lectures on Tap over in America, this activation brings industry experts into bars to give talks about their research. Think two 25-minute talks with a break in between, giving you plenty of time to head to the bar for another pint or a spot of dinner.
Held in the iconic Gov, you're sure to enjoy some good vibes before and after the talks. This particular activation is ideal for introverts, curious minds, or people just looking for something different on a Wednesday night. Below, you'll find details about the talks being discussed and the people giving them.
“Not ovary-acting: The science of pelvic pain” by Dr Jane Chalmers
Join Jane as she explores the fascinating science of pain, how our nervous system shapes our experience of it, and what modern research can teach us about recovery. Drawing on examples from pelvic pain and women's health, this talk will challenge common myths and offer a fresh perspective on chronic pain.
“Reality TV: Documentary’s bastard child?” by Dr Kim Munro
Love it, hate it, or love-to-hate it, reality TV has become a mainstay of broadcast television and streaming platforms. From the wholesome to the diabolical, this concocted and relatively cheap genre has become the bane of documentary makers the world over. But are they really that different?
Accessibility: the gov is a wheelchair accessible venue.
