Sex, Ducks & Alcohol

Wissenschaftlich fundiert und humorvoll – drei Ig-NobelpreisträgerInnen werden die Aula „rocken“.

Wissenschaftlich fundiert und humorvoll – drei Ig-NobelpreisträgerInnen werden die Aula „rocken“.

Die unglaubliche Ig-Nobelpreis-Show macht in der Aula Station

Wie konnte ein Herrscher in 30 Jahren 888 Kinder zeugen? Warum verliebt sich eine Ente in ihren toten gleichgeschlechtlichen Artgenossen? Und warum halten sich betrunkene Menschen für attraktiver? All das beantworten – wissenschaftlich fundiert und mit viel Witz und Humor – bei der Ig-Nobelpreis-Show an der Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz drei renommierte ForscherInnen, die mit dem Ig-Nobelpreis ausgezeichnet wurden, darunter auch „Science Buster“ Elisabeth Oberzaucher.
Durch die Show führt Marc Abrahams. Die Vorträge sind in englischer Sprache.

Mit dem Ig-Nobelpreis würdigt die Universität Harvard alljährlich erstklassige Forschung zu außergewöhnlichen Themen, die Menschen zuerst zum Lachen, dann zum Nachdenken bringen.

WANN: Mittwoch, 29. März 2017, 18:00 Uhr
WO: Aula, Hauptgebäude, Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz, Universitätsplatz 3, 8010 Graz

Eintritt: 15 Euro
Tickets sind im Uni-Shop im RESOWI-Zentrum der Uni Graz erhältlich.
