“If you can’t explain something in simple terms, you don’t understand it,” said Nobel laureate in physics Richard Feynman.
Today, the Science Slam movement is actively promoted in the world, where young scientists intelligibly and with humor talk about the most complex achievements of modern science.
The international project for the popularization of science originated in Germany. Everything is quite simple: on the stage of a bar or club, young scientists talk about the main scientific ideas of our time and their own research. Each slammer has 10 minutes to convey his idea to the audience as accessible, fun and interesting as possible, and the audience determines the best with applause.
Three rules of Science Slam:
1. Only your scientific research.
2. 10 minutes for each performance.
3. The speech must be understandable to the general public.
Do you want to learn how to talk simply about complex things? Speaker training is planned from August 15, 2022.
