Scientist Rebellion

Nana-Maria Grüning

  • Berlin Science Week
  • 2024
  • Speaker

Nana left academia to (fulltime) challenge scientists and their role on a planet in crisis. "What's the point in basic research if there is no future to develop applications of that knowledge? Why would we hide away in our ivory towers and tell ourselves that we are doing our part for society while society is on the verge of collapse?", are just examples of questions that Nana and her colleagues ask. Listen to Nana talk about Scientist Rebellion at #PDD24. Hopefully all us can find a way to join them and/or be more responsible scientists.
