An opportunity for you and your fellow researchers to present your work to a popular audience.

The goal is to give the general public an impression of the entire spectrum of fascinating research which contributes to Aarhus University’s international reputation as a broad, research-intensive university of excellence.

The theme is intended to encourage the communication of a broad variety of research fields to a wide audience. All academic staff from all faculties are welcome to contribute activities, and the Festival of Research is an excellent opportunity to increase public awareness of your research area.

Both seasoned researchers and junior research talents can get involved, and all proposals for activities are welcome: the more spectacular, inspiring and interactive, the better. You can present your research through one of the following types of activities, which have previously been well-received by the public:
• Speed lectures lasting 10 or 20 minutes (including question time) in a lecture room, in which you present your field of research in an engaging and entertaining way
• A stand in Stakladen with hands-on experiments, workshops, exhibits or other activities that involve visitors • Interdisciplinary panel discussions or workshops that involve the audience.

You can read more about the event in the invitation.

Deadline for registration is Friday, March 1st, and the registration can be found here.
