[vip-all] Innovation event – Waste to value - May 25, 2022
A One-Day Hackaton Event (for a sustainable future) – May 25, 2022 Would you like to attack a real-world challenge with your scientific knowledge? Do you want to see if “Innovation” is something that you as a physicist/astronomer can also do? At this Hackathon event, sponsored by the Department of Physics and Astronomy, you will spend an intense day putting your skills to work in cooperation with other researchers and students from the Natural and Technical Sciences at Aarhus University. Together with the other participants you will work with ideas and solutions for a sustainable future. The focus of the Hackathon is Circular Economy – you will use your competences to discover and develop ideas and solutions for products that can be shared, reused, repaired, or recycled to minimize the environmental impact on our planet. What will I get out of it? The Hackathon will supplement your “Scientific Method” with a “Discovery and Design Process” tool, which can be applied in your more basic university research. You will be given the opportunity to pitch your ideas to experienced innovators from local startups and hear their input on how your ideas could be tested in the real world. What should I bring? We will provide everything you need for the Hackathon – just bring yourself and your skills/stamina.

Dear all, Physicists have an excellent background for contributing to innovative solutions! Physicists are also interested in contributing to solutions that minimize our impact on the Earth. If you agree, please consider joining the innovation event described below! 26 students from Physics, iNano, Chemistry and Tech have already signed up, but another handful of physicists will definitely benefit the event!
