Science Pub: You Are What You Click

Register

PRE-REGISTRATION REQUIRED

Oregon State University – Cascades’ Science Pub series continues on Oct. 10 with a discussion by Dr. Brian Primack, dean of the OSU College of Health, on how continual exposure to social media can impact mental health. Primack will draw from his book “You Are What You Click: How Being Selective, Positive, and Creative Can Transform Your Social Media Experience,” published in 2021. He will explore the paradox of many people turning to social media for a sense of connection and comfort yet data show they feel more alone and depressed.

The Science Pub will take place from 5:30 to 7:15 p.m. in the Charles McGrath Family Atrium in Edward J. Ray Hall at OSU-Cascades. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. for networking and dining, with the presentation to follow at 6 p.m.
