Community Education
One of our primary goals is to make scientifically-sound information accessible to the public, translating sexual and gender health science for the masses. We believe our scientific findings should not be held captive behind an academic paywall. Our faculty strive to do this through engagement with the community, providing expert commentary to media outlets, or writing for open access.
Sex Science Happy Hour with Dr. Kristen Mark
What actually happens when a person orgasms? How do I find accurate information about sex for my kids? What about for me? How do you maintain sexual desire in long-term relationships? Am I normal? These are just a few of the incredibly common questions that people have about sex and sexual health. And where do people go to get answers? Well, the Eli Coleman Institute for Sexual and Gender Health invites you to Sex Science Happy Hour, with world-class answers to your questions about sex. Join your host, sex and relationship expert Dr. Kristen Mark, as she brings the science to your burning questions!
Each Sex Science Happy Hour is hosted at a different Twin Cities brewery, and past guests have included author and podcaster Dan Savage, author Peggy Orenstein, sex therapist Dr. Joe Kort, and comedian and sex educator Khadijah Cooper, as well as several ISGH faculty.
