Join Richard for a rare reporter’s travelogue in which he will share his discoveries about science in Iran in the sanctions era and what might happen when sanctions are lifted.
With the Iran nuclear negotiations thick in the news this year, Science magazine’s intrepid international science editor, Richard Stone, gained exclusive access to some of that country’s top scientists, among them president of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran; to leading-edge research facilities, including a new astronomy observatory; and to environmental sites, such as the dying lake Urmia.
Now in its fourth year, DC Science Cafe is brought to you with support from DC Science Writers Association and encouragement from Busboys and Poets.
Free and open to the public.
