Program

Programmet kommer att inkludera olika teman: Insights by light, Smallest Constituents of life, Life as a scientist, Looking at life, Healthy life och Looking for Life. Varje tema kommer att följas av en 30-minuters frågestund där gymnasieelever får chansen att ställa frågor. Mer information om programmet kommer att publiceras senare. Symposiet sker i Chalmers lokal RunAn, campus Johanneberg.
