On 20 June 2025 at 19:30, TU Braunschweig and Haus der Wissenschaft will open the large-scale event "CampusXperience" with a Science Slam in the university’s Audimax. Researchers will present their projects in short, entertaining talks on TU Braunschweig’s core research areas: Metrology, Future City, Engineering for Health, and Mobility. Who can get the audience the most excited about their research topic?
At a Science Slam, speakers have a maximum of ten minutes to present their current research topic and to win the hearts of the audience. At the end, the audience evaluates the presentations with point cards and thus crowns the winner. The deciding factor for the rating is therefore not just who does the best research, but also who gives the best presentation.
We would be delighted if you join us on 20 June 2025 at 19:30 in the Audimax and actively support the Slammies! Doors open at 19:00.
I’ll catch an atom!
What is the smallest object you can catch? A mouse is certainly possible, as is a fly. But how do you catch a single atom? And can you even see it? Find out the answer to all these questions and what you can do with the atom once it’s under control!

Automated driving – but safe!
The automation of motorised road traffic is progressing inexorably – in the true sense of the word, the AUTOmotive will drive itself in the future. But how safe are the systems for recognising other road users? And do they also work in bad weather, as we are all very familiar with in Germany? And what does all of this actually have to do with the PTB and Will Smith?

How loud does it stink in the stable?
Can you hear the stench? Sure – with physics, technology, and a pinch of ingenuity! In his Science Slam, Michael Kazda explains how this works, why it’s pretty clever and how it even makes pigs happier.

The Augmented Architect: How AI is Shaping the Cities of Tomorrow
Imagine walking through a city where every building, every street, and every park is alive with intelligence—not just designed by human hands, but co-created with Artificial Intelligence. I invite you to step into this augmented reality, where the architect and the algorithm build the cities of tomorrow.

Llama Drama in the Lab - Fighting cancer and COVID with alpaca nanobodies
Alpacas are not only fluffy and cute, but also true little superheroes in the fight against diseases. They are able to produce special antibodies - so-called nanobodies. And when these come into contact with magnetic nanoparticles, cancer and COVID have to dress warmly.
