Young Researcher’s Night Trondheim

The Young Academy of Norway (Akademiet for yngre forskere) welcomes you to the second edition of the Young Scientists’ Researcher’s Night 2019 at Rockheim. Mingle with other young researchers in Trondheim and enjoy music, science and good talks! Free drinks to the first who arrives.

The main target group is researchers from 25 to 45 years but the event is open to everyone. Free entrance!

The main theme for this year is “environment”. Through a series of exciting talks and performances, we travel through different environments: from the global big picture all the way down to the local and everyday life environment. More concretely, the journey takes us from the global environmental crisis, through what is happening at more local and city context to different topics affecting our everyday life environment as young researchers.

Talks and conversations are mixed with performances and music, and the bar will be open all night.Bring your colleagues and join us!
