Science Pub: The Case of Inattentional Blindness

Dr. Mary MacLean, a SAGE Junior Fellow from the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences at UCSB will discuss the nature of our visual awareness: specifically, how attention is the key to our awareness, and how without it we can miss what’s right in front of our faces. Join our fun and friendly conversation, and quench your thirst for knowledge about science and nature. No tickets or reservations required, but be sure to get to Dargan’s early for a seat and to order your favorite drink and food. At Dargan’s Irish Pub & Restaurant, 18 E. Ortega Street. Free admission. Information: contact Stefanie Coleman at 805-682-4711 ext. 170 or scoleman@sbnature2.org
