Breaking Science is a science communication battle for young researchers organized by Utrecht University and UMC Utrecht. We aim to help discover 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, 32 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 connection. The winner receives €1500 to be spent on attending conferences or summer schools.
