DESCRIPTION:Join award-winning Science Pub host Nancy Scales-Coddington as she welcomes Home Performance Experts Grace and Corbett Lunsford sharing what they have learned about testing and tuning the physics\, chemistry\, and microbiology of homes. The Lunsfords are currently filming season 3 of Home Diagnosis\, called ‘Accidents Happen’\, which will dive into all the invisible side effects of disasters\, both natural and human-made. We will explore the air quality of our homes\, disaster planning and how you can make your home a healthier\, more resilient haven for your family.\nGrace and Corbett Lunsford brought their high performance 200 sq ft TinyLab to Ithaca in 2016 and since then carried the journey to national TV with Home Diagnosis on PBS. Season One followed Corbett and Grace in their #TinyLab helping homeowners solve mystery home problems. Season Two continued the exploration but followed the Lunsford family building their new 3000 sqft forever home for their growing family. Season Three is called “Accidents Happen” and the lens will focus on both natural and man made disasters. Bring your questions and curiosity!\n  \nRegister Here.\nTHURSDAY\, SEPTEMBER 8\n6:00 PM: Reception \nTours of Tompkins County CCE Tiny Home\, Boyce Thompson Institute \nGet hands on with the testing tools used in Home Diagnosis. \n7:00 PM: Science Pub Show \nThis event will be hybrid in-person and streaming live on WSKG’s YouTube channel. \nLocation: Boyce Thompson Institute (533 Tower Rd\, Ithaca\, NY 14853).
