Science

Bio Talks: Biology and Beyond

Lecture series

Are you curious about the intersections between biology and society? Do you want to explore how science shapes our world – and how society, in turn, influences science? Then you are more than welcome at our Bio Talks lectures

In this new lecture series, we will spark your curiosity, challenge you to think about current issues, and offer fresh perspectives on historical processes. 

The lectures are open to a broad audience and require no scientific background – just a healthy dose of fascination for the world around us. Everyone is welcome!

Lectures will be in English.
