Meet us at the Science Day in the Seeburg on September 30th

Exhibition area and various participatory activities

On Friday, September 30th, the Science Day takes place throughout the city of Kiel. We join the event with an exhibition area and various participatory activities in the Seeburg at the Kiellinie.

From 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., we want to know, how and in which places people wish to experience science in the future. For this purpose, we present the four concepts that Master’s students developed in the term project Pop-Up Science! at Muthesius Academy of Fine Arts on the topic of antibiotic resistance. On site, anyone can vote on which idea is the most appealing.

Visitors also learn more about our work: how do new approaches to the visual communication of scientific content emerge in the collaboration between educational research, information design and innovative health research, and how can the public get involved in the design process?

We look forward to the exchange!
