Placed this year on the theme of "the unexpected", the European Researchers' Night will take place on Friday, September 30, 2022 from 6:30 pm to midnight at Cap Sciences. A moment of encounter between the general public and scientists from Inria, the University of Bordeaux, the University of Bordeaux Montaigne, the CNRS and INRAE.
Nuit européenne des chercheur.e.s

The European night of researchers: what is it? 

The European Researchers' Night is an invitation to share an evening with scientists in hundreds of European cities, including 16 in France. On this occasion, conditions of convivial dialogues are created, for simple, singular exchanges. Innovative devices are proposed to the public. Within scenographic spaces, the atmosphere is relaxed, allowing intimate and particular moments of sharing, to discover scientists as you have never seen or heard them before.

This year, the theme of this night is "The Unexpected", because these are commonplace in the scientific research environment: change of subject, unexpected discoveries, surprises on the field or during experiments, contributions from amateurs and/or novices, bright ideas, etc. Scientists cultivate serendipity on a daily basis!
