Before the Flood and Much More at the Week of Science and Technology (6 – 12 November)

Answer the questions that keep you awake at night!

Did you know that volcanoes can spew out not only lava but also ice? An interesting and hopefully heated discussion will take place on this topic at a lecture in Plzeň. Would you like to know the diet of future generations? What is it like to work on the development of the most powerful lasers in the world and what preceded the launch of first lasers in centers? Nanotechnology, a powerful servant but a bad master? What can we expect from the advancement of artificial intelligence in the near and distant future? These are but a few of the questions that will be discussed within the luxurious Week of Science and Technology of the Czech Academy of Sciences.

Science inspires and entertains!

The festival is not only about serious topics. Scientists will show visitors that science can be not only inspiring but also a form of luxurious entertainment. In this respect, one needs to highlight the Light and Sound show performed by doctor of chemistry Michael Londesborough. Similarly, FameLab will showcase a selection of the best three minute performance from an international competition. You can even take part in the first luxurious scientific escape game.
