We welcome all levels of French, and it's free\*.
Venez pratiquer votre français! \*While there is no fee to attend this event, guests are expected to purchase something from B Espresso Bar, in accordance with RCM's restrictions on usage of the cafe atrium space. **Building location:** The Royal Conservatory is at 273 Bloor St W, between Varsity Stadium and the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM). There are entrances off Bloor St. and Philosopher's Walk. If you enter from Bloor St through the large glass doors, follow the hallway on the left beside the staircase and turn left at the end.

Attendees must leave the building at 8pm when the cafe stops serving. **Contributions:** If you are a regular with us and would like to support the group, please send any contributions by e-transfer to [diskutomeetup@gmail.com.](http://diskutomeetup@gmail.com.)

Glow Night at DIYBIO.to

**Glow Night at DIYBio.to: Fluorescent Drinks Under Black Light!** This Thursday Oct. 8,\*, DIYBio.to invites you to [Hacklab.to](https://hacklab.to/visit-us/) to help engineer the most luminous libations for an upcoming Halloween party. Think of it as a tasting lab rather than a bar night: we're here to experiment, measure, and refine, not to imbibe in earnest. **On the menu:** * **Tonic water and tonic ice cubes**, whose quinine glows electric blue under UV * **Chlorophyll-infused vodka**, a leafy green drink that fluoresces blood-red * **Riboflavin and turmeric concoctions**, glowing chartreuse and gold * Mocktail versions for everyone. The spirited versions are 19+. Then we'll put the drinks to the test. Samples go into our real-time PCR machine, repurposed as a plate reader, to measure exactly how brightly each one glows across different wavelengths. Why does tonic dazzle under a black light but barely register on some detectors? What happens when you add a pinch of salt? Come find out! **Also happening:** * Updates on our community biology projects, plus a sneak peek at courses we're preparing for the coming months * Ongoing wet-lab projects continue, and anyone keen to lend a hand is welcome to join in * Plenty of time to chat biotech, swap ideas, and meet fellow enthusiasts **About us:** DIYBio.to bridges the gap between biology and the community, helping people reconnect with the wonders of the living world. We're an open, neutral, not-for-profit group of biologists and enthusiasts, from the merely curious to PhD-level scientists. We also teach community biology programs in libraries and other not-for-profits across the city. Learn more at diybio.to and on our experiment.com program. **Community standards:** We're committed to a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment at Hacklab.to and DIYBio.to. Our policies, including our Anti-Harassment Policy, apply to all participants and are posted on our websites.
