Join KQED in welcoming Science Friday for an evening of inspiring science and research news from the Bay Area. This is your chance to participate in a special 2-hour live show that will feature everything you love about Science Friday–fascinating scientists, engaging conversations, nerding out about the latest research, plus demos, visuals, and much, much more. 

Don’t miss this Science Friday Live featuring a conversation about the tiny organisms that live around, and inside us: microbes! We’ll explore everything from extremophiles that stretch the limits of where life can exist, to the organisms lurking in your local pond water, with Stanford professors Dr. Paula Welander and Dr. Manu Prakash.

We’ll also explore how AI is transforming robotics. We’ll hear from roboticist Dr. Karen Liu about how she’s working to harness the power of computer animation and large language models to make more sophisticated humanoid robots.

Plus, a conversation with coral conservationist Dr. Rebecca Albright, head of the Coral Regeneration Lab at the California Academy of Sciences, about the complicated—and colorful—science of coral reproduction.
