You might not find Spiderman, Iron Man, or Batman among EPFL’s faculty, but superheroes have no qualms about entering the scientific psyche. Marc Atallah et Gianni Haver will join us on Wednesday, September 24, at 12:15 p.m. in the Rolex Learning Center to talk about this form of science that lies somewhere between fiction and reality. Entrance and lunch are free.
