Agora is pleased to introduce a new lecture series called “Science Stories and Conversations,” launching on April 15, 2026. The events will be held every other Wednesday at 5:00 PM at the Agora Science Centre.

This English-language program is designed mainly for university students and adults, offering insights into intriguing episodes from the history of science. Each session will conclude with an open, informal discussion, giving participants the chance to exchange ideas and reflections on the topic.

Hopefully by June, a small, active community will form among the participants, and together they can even help shape the themes of a possible autumn series.
