Science & Cooking lecture series returns to Harvard Sept. 9

Harvard’s famed Science & Cooking lecture series will return Sept. 9, bringing awe-inspiring gelées, mousses, emulsions—and perhaps even the perfect paella—to a hungry public.

The weekly talks will feature world-class chefs and eminent food experts, including Wylie Dufresne, José Andrés, Ferran Adrià, Harold McGee, and many others.

The kickoff event on Monday, Sept. 9, features Dave Arnold (host of the radio show Cooking Issues) and Harold McGee (author of On Food and Cooking: The Science and Lore of the Kitchen and columnist for The New York Times).

The public lecture series runs through the end of the fall semester. A full schedule, including the lecture topics, is available online: /cooking
