From May 18–20, scientists across Zürich will step out of their labs and into local venues to talk about AI, biodiversity, psychology, music therapy, environmental change, and more, all in a relaxed and accessible setting. #PintOfScience #Zurich #ScienceCommunication
What makes Pint of Science special is not just the research, but the conversations that happen around it. You can hear directly from the people behind the science, ask questions, and discover topics you might never normally encounter. #PintOfScience #Zurich #ScienceCommunication
Pint of Science starts next week in Zurich. If you’ve ever been curious about science but felt conferences and lectures were not for you, this event is exactly the opposite. #PintOfScience #Zurich #ScienceCommunication
Pint of Science is back with talks on AI, primate research, robotics, and more! Curious? Scan the QR code and come experience it for yourself 🍻🔬 #PintOfScience #ZurichEvents #ScienceForAll #Zurich

Smart sensor tag protects sensitive goods
Researchers from Empa, EPFL and CSEM have developed a green smart sensing tag that measures temperature and humidity in real time – and can also detect whether a temperature threshold has been exceeded. In future, this could be used to monitor sensitive shipments such as medicines or food. The sen...

Today, a United States Senator was arrested for asking a question of a federal official, in a federal building, as was his right. If it can happen to a sitting U.S. Senator, it can happen to anyone. Silence is complicity. We are at a crossroads. We must speak up. @alex-padilla4ca.bsky.social

The brutal arrest of a Senator asking a question at a press conference, the threat of Marines being unleashed on the public, and the attack on science are all symptoms of the same illness. When we are punished for asking questions and striving for better, we are no longer free. #Standupforscience
I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.
