Computers with humor? Dancing biologists? The hidden music of enzymes? A rather different approach to science will be showcased on Wednesday, 13.6.2012, 18:00-21:00, during the ”Science hits the town” programme of the Millenium Technology Prize ceremony in the Pavilion for the World Design Capital Helsinki 2012, Ullanlinnakatu 2-4, Helsinki. At the 5th ScienceSLAM Helsinki, five young researchers will enter the stage and take the audience on a fascinating tour through cutting-edge science – with quite unconventional methods…
At the 5th ScienceSLAM Helsinki, these five performances will compete for the audience’s applause:
Alessandro Valitutti (Computer Science): „Computational Humor“
Anmol Kumar (Neuroscience): „Dancing of brain through body“
Toma Susi (Materials Science): „The story of an article“
Chiara Gasparetti (Biochemistry): „Music notes of enzymology“
Anna-Maria Lahesmaa-Korpinen (Systems biology): „The choreography of the cancer proteome“
