Pint of Science is an international festival where scientists share discoveries through engaging, accessible talks. It is a unique chance to meet those tackling today’s major challenges, including several from EPFL, in a friendly atmosphere.
Among the many scientists, at Cylure on May 18th, dive into “The bright side of matter” with Samantha Sbarra (Photonic System Laboratory), Paolo Cattaneo (Laboratory for Ultrafast Microscopy and Electron Scattering) and Stefano Marinoni (Laboratory of Semiconductor Materials), who will reveal how tomorrow’s materials are transforming technology.
On May 19th, “From campus to the world” will highlight the commitment of EPFL students through concrete projects such as the EPFL Rocket Team, HackaHealth and Swiss Solar Boat, addressing global challenges from space exploration to sustainable and inclusive innovation.
On May 20th: “The price of tomorrow” with Matteo Tolosano (River Ecosystems Laboratory) and Sascha Nick (Laboratory of Environmental and Urban Economics), exploring the impacts of climate change and proposing sustainable solutions.
