UABDivulga - Barcelona recerca i innovació

Description:

Veus UAB is a platform for disseminating research in Catalan, aimed at promoting the language in a sphere where it remains marginalised and at sharing knowledge generated at the UAB. It consists of eight-minute talks addressed to the general public—and particularly to secondary school students—designed to showcase science as a driver of change. Those interested can attend the talks as a member of the audience; they will be recorded on video and broadcast online, and will subsequently be uploaded to the website and the UAB's official YouTube channel. They will also be available at the website 3Cat.cat.
