Christopher Fisher, Ph.D., will be part of the next Omaha Science Cafe.

Two of Omaha’s leading sex researchers will make a return engagement at the next Science Cafe at 7 p.m., April 1, at the Slowdown, 729 N. 14th St. They will discuss sexually transmitted infections, HIV and safe sex.

Presenters will include: Christopher Fisher, Ph.D., director of the Midlands Sexual Health Research Collaborative, and Jason Coleman, Ph.D., associate director of MSHRC. For more information about the MSHRC visit the website here.

This will be the second of a four-part series of Science Cafe presentations dealing with sexual health topics. Drs. Fisher and Coleman opened the series in December when they presented on the MSHRC.
