From 16 December 2023 to 17 January 2024, the Luxembourg Science Center will host an exhibition about the new science comic “LUX:plorations – A Universe of Research“
The third volume of the University of Luxembourg’s science comic series takes readers to a colony in space and back to earth. Local scientists and artists have teamed up to create four stories about science and research in Luxembourg. The new edition features comics about artificial intelligence, ADHD, fashion and psychology, quantum physics as well as virtual reality. They were created collaboratively in groups, each of which comprised two doctoral candidates and one local comic artist. Visit the exhibition!
Science workshops
Researchers from the University of Luxembourg are also offering short science workshops of around 15-20 minutes in collaboration with the Luxembourg Science Centre:
- On 16 December 2023 from 10:00 – 12:00 as well as 13:00 – 15:00 you can participate in the “Brain Organoids” science workshop. Presented by Daniela Vega Gutierrez (Uni.lu / FSTM), discover more about your brain through fun experiments and role-games for the whole family.
- On 30 December 2023 from 10:30 – 12:30 as well as from 13:30 – 17:00 you can take part in the “Cooperation” science workshop. Presented by Jean-Marie Nau (Uni.lu / FHSE), explore a new model that redefines how humans make decisions together.
The project is supported by the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR), the Faculty of Science, Technology and Medicine (FSTM) as well as the Doctoral School in Humanities and Social Sciences (DSHSS).
