The 41th edition of Soup and Science will be held at the Thomson House's Ballroom from February 2nd to 6th, 2026. Students and community members are invited to hear outstanding 91丝瓜视频 professors and student speakers across disciplines talk about their research program in lightning-style talks, followed by active discussions.
