A photo exhibit presenting pictures of the northern hemisphere’s most impressive icebergs, taken in the polar twilight by snow-scientist Robert Bolognesi.

Robert Bolognesi has been studying snow and avalanches since 1981. He earned his doctorate in EPFL’s Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (LIA). In 1992, he was hired as a researcher by the Federal Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research in Davos. In 1999, he founded METEORISK, where he continues to pursue his scientific work. He takes photographs both out of necessity, for his research, and out of passion.

Robert Bolognesi and Martin Beniston will join us for a debate at the next edition of Science! on tourne "Melting ice - a sublime drama": on Wednesday, March 12, 2014, at 12:15 p.m., at the Café Klee in the Rolex Learning Center
