SUMMARY:Science on Tap
DESCRIPTION:Science On Tap is a monthly series of informal talks led by scientists that explore current research topics and the importance of science in our daily life. Each talk takes place in a relaxed pub atmosphere where communication flows freely between scientists and the public. Co-presented by Skidmore’s Environmental Studies and Sciences Department and Sustainable Saratoga\, these monthly opportunities for discussion reflect the unique intellectual culture of the greater Capital Region and promote scientific literacy. \nThe next Science on Tap is Wednesday\, May 28 @ 7:00 pm. \nAdmission is free and all ages are welcome. Come early to get a bite to eat. The talk will start promptly at 7:00pm. \nTalk Title: Don’t Sleep on the Fly! What Studies of Fruit Flies Can Teach Us about Sleep\nWe spend almost 1/3 of our life sleeping\, and yet we know very little about this mysterious behavioral state. An answer to even the seemingly simplest question continues to elude us: Why do we get sleepy? In the last 20 years\, many advances in our understanding of this topic have come from studies of an unlikely subject – the fruit fly\, Drosophila melanogaster. In this talk\, I will discuss some of the broad benefits of studying sleep in fruit flies and will share some of the projects from my lab in which we examine how sleep is regulated by internal and environmental factors. \nChris Vecsey\, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor and Director of the Neuroscience Program at Skidmore College. He has been at Skidmore for 10 years\, but before that was a Visiting Assistant Professor at Swarthmore College\, a Postdoctoral Fellow at Brandeis University\, a Ph.D. student at the University of Pennsylvania\, and an undergraduate at Amherst College. His research examines the neurobiological mechanisms of sleep regulation in fruit flies\, and he teaches courses on Neurophysiology\, Mechanisms of Memory\, and the Neurobiology of Sleep. \n\nScience on Tap Saratoga

SUMMARY:Pollinator Palooza
DESCRIPTION:Sustainable Saratoga is hosting Pollinator Palooza\, a native plant sale and pollinator education event\, on Saturday\, May 31 from 10-3. RAIN OR SHINE!\nNative pollinators (bees\, butterflies\, etc.) are in drastic decline due to habitat loss\, pesticide use\, and climate change. Planting native plants provides essential food and habitat for native pollinators. It is often challenging to find native plants\, but at Pollinator Palooza\, you can shop our selection of over 30 native plant species. \n\nDATE: Saturday\, May 31\, 2025 (rain or shine) \nTIME: 10 am until 3 pm\nLOCATION: 390 Wilton Gansevoort Rd\, Gansevoort\, NY 12831 (just 10 miles from downtown Saratoga Springs)\n\nPLEASE NOTE: Cash or check preferred \n\nMake a day of it! Learn how your garden\, no matter how small\, can help pollinators. Pollinator Palooza features information about sustainable gardening\, the importance of native species\, and general plant and pollinator educational resources\, including free soil pH testing. We will have fun kids’ activities\, raffles (gift certificates\, books\, plants\, and more)\, entertainment\, and delicious food from Coach’s Corner Food Truck! See the plant list and participating organizations HERE.
