Prof. Fitzek talking to the students
When it comes to future technology, TU Dresden and King's College London are always right at the forefront. But how will scientific progress affect our everyday life, how will it change the conditions and even the definition of being human?
With the first scientific symposium, transCampus wanted to bring scientific advancement into the public debate. Many people, many of them students from grammar schools and universities, followed our invitation to attend this event at the Francis Crick Institute on 5th of March and gave an overall positive and enthusiastic feedback afterwards.
For those who were not able to attend, the Crick Institute shares the video registration of the event: Global challenges of the 21st century. In case a password is required, please insert: Transcampus.
