Events for the public
Each year, there are several events we have traditionally been engaged in.
Czech European Researchers' Night
Scientist Night is a nationwide event aimed at popularising science taking place in the evening that engages everyone in the inspiring environment of science. Visitors can play, learn, test and try to understand and explore this fascinating world. Physis departments offer a wide range of activities, including visits to workplaces accompanied by experiments, lectures on current research topics, or quizzes and competitions for all ages.
The official webpages of Researchers' Night can be found here. The next event will be held on 27 September 2024 with a Transformation as a topic. The program prepared by our physics departments is available here.
Science Festival
The Science Festival is an event taking place in the Brno exhibition grounds. It introduces both professional and popular science institutions established in Brno. The aim is not to teach, but to inspire and demonstrate that science is here to help us live better.
In 2024, the Science Festival took place from 6 to 8 September. Read for more here. Next year, the event will be from 5 to 7 September 2025.
Days of Electron Microscopy
In 2024, we joined DEM for the first time. It is an event for the general public presenting electron microscopy, its significance, and its contributions. Brno City truly is a metropolis on the world map of electron microscopy. In 2024, the topic was Microscopic Villains.
In the week of 18 - 24 March 2024, the Department of Plasma Physics and Technology, CEPLANT center together with the Botanical Garden presented the following program.
