No pub, no problem! Assemble your team of thinkers and drinkers to pit fact against fiction in our Pub-less Quiz.
What do you really know about the science of relationships? The history of romance? And have you heard of the Old Irish tradition of the love-spoon?
Get ready for a deep dive into the crazy world of sociality, sex, and relationships – and don’t worry, there won’t be anything too stomach-churningly romantic. Your host, Imperial’s Maeve O’Sullivan, will make sure of that.
In this edition of the Pub-less Quiz we are joined by guest researcher Janet Chik, whose research is centered around the House Sparrow. Janet looks at how sociability in animals can affect their aging, and if being social gives you more benefits. So, get your bird watching goggles out and don’t forget you can send in questions to put to Janet during our mid-quiz Q&A!
So, don your thinking caps (or drinking caps) and enter the virtual Imperial Arms for a spoonful of Thursday-night entertainment. See you there!
How it works
This is a team-based quiz! Before the quiz begins you will need to decide on a team name and a team leader, who will be responsible for submitting your team’s scores.
Teams are flexible. You can play on your own, with other people within your household, or with friends and family remotely. If you are playing in a remote team, we recommend setting up a WhatsApp group that you can use to discuss answers.
On the night of the quiz, please join the online event five minutes ahead of the 19.30 start time to make sure that you don’t miss any points!
