On Friday, September 30, from 5 pm until 10 pm, a number of coffee shops, restaurants and shops in the city centre will host “La ricerca va in città”, an event organized by the University of Trento, the Fondazione Bruno Kessler, the Fondazione Edmund Mach, and Muse - Science Museum, in collaboration with the Autonomous Province of Trento and with the support of the Municipality of Trento.
Researchers from the four institutions will meet citizens and discuss their studies and discoveries in a friendly and fun way.
The lectures will take place in coffee shops and bars while patrons sip their coffee or “aperitivo”, but it is also possible to dine with researchers in some city centre restaurants.
There will be city tours and urban trekking tours where researchers will tell about their work while walking through the city’s streets and visiting selected shops to in relation to specific subjects.
The programme also includes a number of meetings with high-school students in which researchers will give flash-talks on the main subjects of their work.
The event will start at 4 pm with a round table at the headquarters of the Autonomous Province of Trento.
