The Faraday Institute invites Christians in the scientific community to its tenth Annual Reception for an evening of celebration.
Drinks and a hot buffet will be available from 6.00pm and will be followed by a short talk by Dr Norman Fraser.
This invitation is for all scientists (from graduate students to FRSs and Nobel prize-winners) in the Cambridge area who self-identify as Christians.
Free tickets are available, but if you would like to contribute to the cost of the event and our ongoing work, tickets with added donations are also available.
