Nacht der Forschung (Researchers' Night)

The University of Bern is opening its doors on the night of 23 September and is inviting the public to join in with discussions, simulations and lots of informal get-togethers with scientists.

On the night of Friday 23 September, the scientists will not go home after a long working day in their labs, but will welcome members of the general public who have always wondered what exactly the researchers at the university are actually doing.

On occasion of the European-wide Researchers' night (Nacht der Forschung) – an initiative of the European Commission – the researchers will display their findings, present talks with well-known scientists or just let the public take the initiative in the various interactive games offered in three buildings of the University of Bern.

So, why not dare to do a PowerPoint karaoke with a university professor’s slides? Or choose one of the many other planned activities? For details see the links we have collected for the Nacht der Forschung.
