Scientific Cafe: Are you looking after your heart?

After the winter break, we are back with a new cafe at a new location: this season the restaurant Carmelitas (C/Doctor Dou, 1) is collaborating with Science Meets Society by hosting the next Scientific Cafes.


  • How can we detect Cardiovascular Risk?
