Get inspired at BU’s Research Café – where research comes to life
Join a community of curious minds to ask questions, share ideas, and explore research at Bournemouth University. Enjoy thought-provoking talks followed by lively discussions, where you can engage directly with guest speakers and fellow attendees.

Our next event features talks from Bournemouth University postgraduate researchers, all currently working towards their PhDs and eager to share their work with the public.
We are excited to welcome three researchers who will present their work and discuss how their research might address the following questions:
- What influences tourists when using public transport, and how can we encourage more eco-friendly travel habits?
- How do video games bring back memories from the past, and what makes them feel nostalgic?
- How are drinking habits and eating behaviours connected in women, and how can we improve support for those facing these challenges?
Taking place at BGB Café on Tuesday 6 May, the talks will begin at 6:30pm. The café opens at 6pm, so arrive early to buy a drink and a bite to eat before the event begins.
If you have any questions about this event, please email the Public Engagement with Research Team: publicengagement@bournemouth.ac.uk
