In this interactive presentation, Dr. Rebecca Jones (Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry and STEM Accelerator) will discuss the chemistry of emulsions. During the presentation, in person attendees will create their own salad dressing using common ingredients, such as oil, vinegar, and mustard. The salad dressing can be used on items from the salad bar that will be provided.

All interested students, faculty, and staff are welcome. This free event will also be open to the general public. 

This event is organized in collaboration with the George Mason University Libraries.
