In late October, the Haus der Wissenschaft in Braunschweig became a stage for research, entertainment, and a healthy dose of excitement. At the sold-out SE²A Science Slam, six early-career researchers from our Cluster of Excellence showed just how fascinating, surprising, and entertaining aviation research can be!
With creativity and passion, they took us on a journey from invisible aircraft noise to the world of atoms and on to the mysterious investigation of a plane crash.
Bringing complex scientific topics to life on stage in a clear and captivating way? No problem for our researchers! The Science Slam highlighted who is behind the research at the SE²A Cluster of Excellence: curious, creative, and dedicated people who aren’t afraid to present science in new and different ways. Each presentation had its own unique style and special charm.
And although the decision was naturally a difficult one, a winner was crowned at the end of the evening:
Hamza Touati from the SE²A changING Research Club took the audience on an exciting quest in his self-produced short film. Together, the audience followed the clues, discussed possible explanations, and puzzled over why an airplane had crashed. With his extraordinary idea and successful execution, Hamza ultimately won over the audience.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all six participants for their wonderful contributions, their thorough preparation, and their courage in taking the big stage!
Special thanks also go to the Haus der Wissenschaft Braunschweig for the wonderful collaboration, to host Insina Lüschen for her captivating moderation, and to coach Dr. Julia Offe, who prepared our scientists to get ready for the stage!
