Circus Stage

This is where science puts on its glitter coat and jumps on stage! No bone-dry lectures here, just 15 minutes of science in podcast form. Put on your headphones and you are right there - or rather, right there with your ears.

From 16:30 to 20:00h the Science Circus is powered by the EWUU Alliance - where Wageningen University & Research, Eindhoven University of Technology, Utrecht University and Utrecht University Medical Centre explore the future together. More about the Science Circus on the EWUU website.
