Clear the Stage for Science - the Science Slam of the Berlin Clusters of Excellence

Berlin Clusters of Excellence

Battle of the Brains - The Ultimate Science Slam Edition

Slammin’ like there’s no tomorrow – at our cluster science slam, researchers try everything to entertain their audience, regardless of whether the subject is e.g. mathematics, neuroscience or active material. The sky is the limit when it comes to what’s possible. Costumes, props, movies, power-point presentations or other experimental setups – it is all allowed. Only time sets the limits – every slammer will have six minutes at most. And the audience will decide which presentation is best!
