I suddenly remembered today that a 5 day science forum called "Tieteen Päivät" roughly translating to "Science Days" is starting tomorrow in Helsnki. The events are at Helsinki University. It is open for everyone.
The first Science forum was organized in 1954. But the current format of 5 days and one night has been happening since 1977 and is a biennial event. Different topics and events are organized for each day. Seminars, talks, demonstrations.....Five full days of exciting things. And all the events are connected to the theme of that year.
The theme of the 2011 Science Forum is Science and Everyday Life - My most favorite topic. I couldn't believe I get to observe and enjoy the same topic I am working on promoting here everyday. I am joining Tampere Lukio students and teacher to go visit it on thursday. Although I wish I could be there for all 5 days, I am glad to be able to visit one day this year. Perhaps next year?
The Science Forum is from 12.1.2011 till 16.1.2011. It includes both saturday and sunday so if you get a chance, please go visit atleast for a few hours.
