From heart-breaking to hilarious, The Story Collider show is a live storytelling event featuring stories from people from all walks of life about how science has affected their lives. Whether you wear a lab coat or haven’t seen a test tube since grade school, science is shaping all our lives.

Every year, The Story Collider hosts live shows – in person and online – around the world with all kinds of storytellers: researchers, doctors, and engineers, of course, but also patients, poets, comedians, and more. Our team’s favorite stories from those shows land on our weekly podcast. They’re all true and all very personal.

Science on Tap OR WA is excited to be partnering with them for an evening of true, personal stories about science.

If you’d like to share your science story please email stories@storycollider.org by July 22 and include a short (1-2 paragraphs) summary of your story and “PORTLAND” in the subject line. If they think it might be a good fit for the show, they’ll get in touch.
