Breaking Science is back! During the annual science communication competition, early-career researchers have just three minutes to pitch their research or a scientific concept from their field of study. Who can tell the most convincing science story of 2023? Come join us in the bar of Parnassos Cultural Centre to get inspired and cheer on the finalists.
Breaking Science is a science communication battle for young researchers organized by Utrecht University and UMC Utrecht. We aim to help discover charismatic, up-coming researchers who can inspire you to see the world from a completely new perspective… all in a timespan of just three minutes!
Finalists
During four heats, 28 candidates competed for a spot in the finals. After each heat, the jury, consisting of a researcher and a science communicator, decided which two winners would go through to the finals.
During the final, a jury will assess the pitches based on content, clarity and charisma. The winner receives €1500 to be spent on attending conferences or summer schools.
