3mE-researchers on stage in Famelab

Who is best at presenting his or her science story? On Wednesday 3 April, 16 researchers will battle with each other for a place in the Dutch finals of the international FameLab competition. Join them and get to know all about all sorts of biomedical applications, seeing the invisible, disasters getting worse, and water on the moons of Jupiter. The presentations will be judged by a jury and by you!

FameLab entry reasons
“I would like to learn how to communicate science with the society. When you read a lot and doing experiments, it is hard to explain your knowledge to people who are not involved in your project. I would like to train myself how to explain the common theme of my project and not all the subquestions of the project. No previous science communication experience.”

FameLab entry reasons
“I decided to enter FameLab to learn how to communicate an interesting message, such as a scientific study, in the most effective way. I like being challenged and pushed out of my comfort zone. Presenting science in 3 minutes sounds like the perfect challenge to me. I hope to learn how to communicate clearly and efficiently, confident and calm to better transmit the message of my talk.”
