"Wissenschaft für Alle" is a public lecture series (in German language) organized by FAIR and GSI and aimed at anyone interested in current science and research.
The topics cover a wide scientific spectrum — the series not only reports on research at GSI and FAIR but also addresses current topics in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, and computer science in general. The aim of the series is to present scientific concepts in a way that is understandable without specialized knowledge.
The lecture series has been running since 1988 and has attracted over 46,000 attendees across more than 300 lectures.

The event will take place both as an in-person event (with registration) at our on-site lecture hall and as an online webinar. Please note the following information. If you have any questions regarding the event in advance, please contact us via email at info(at)gsi.de.
