ZMT - Leibniz Zentrum für Marine Tropenforschung

25/02/2021 | On March 18, Leibniz researchers will answer questions on topics that touch everyday life. "Book a Scientist. Book a Scientist" offers a unique chance to talk to an expert from the Leibniz Association for 25 minutes.

What does hip-hop sound like in Central Asia? What does peace have to do with Covid-19? What role do different hop varieties play in the flavor of a craft beer? What are living medicines? How can stress be measured in animals? What do you do with a -269 degree Celsius cold diamond? How are galaxies weighed? And what are the differences between say and mean?

The individual, 25-minute, one-on-one sessions will take place online on March 18, 2021. Safe your "date" with a smart Leibniz mind now! www.leibniz-gemeinschaft.de/bookascientist
