In the suitcase of researchers

The researchers return from their travels and reveal the contents of their suitcases... Will you be able to define which objects are essential to their research, and which ones are taken on vacation? Through this unpacking, you will have the opportunity to discuss the research topics and the passions of the speakers!

20-minute workshop, which will take place several times between 6 p.m. and 11 p.m.
