Details of March 11 “Science on Tap” announced

Dr. Amy Brock-Hon will discuss “MOCS Underground: Advancing research and experiential learning at Raccoon Mountain Caverns.” 

The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) has announced that the March 11 edition of “Science on Tap” will feature Dr. Amy Brock-Hon discussing “MOCS Underground: Advancing research and experiential learning at Raccoon Mountain Caverns.” 

The Raccoon Mountain Caverns site, newly gifted UTC, is an unparalleled asset for University research and student learning opportunities. Brock-Hon, UTC Robert Lake Wilson Professor of Geology, will take “Science on Tap” participants inside the work of research and study happening now and planned in the future at Raccoon Mountain Caverns.  

She’ll explain how studies in the cave may advance understanding of complex karst systems and the unique cave environment. Brock-Hon also will address the value to the community—in addition to UTC students and faculty—of conducting research in the cave. And of course, she’ll also take your questions. 

“Science on Tap” is a free, monthly event offered at 5-7 p.m. EST on the second Tuesday of each month at the Tap House in St. Elmo. Each casual and informal gathering will feature an expert sharing fascinating insights from their field of research, along with real-world implications of those insights.
