Wednesday program of the Genoa Science Festival

The 19th edition of the Genoa Science Festival continues on Wednesday 27 October, an event with a hybrid format that aims to get back together and experience science firsthand, with an important program and a renewed online schedule. On the seventh day of the festival, nine conferences, a special event, two appointments for “Scholars in Schools” and a show: Ale’s Adventures in Nature (10 am), In School with Nuvolario (10 am) The great European map Niccol Paganini, first artist to tour In History Music (10 a.m.), Discover Teledermatology (2.30 p.m. and 3.30 p.m.), The Science and Knowledge of Art (3 p.m.) Mapping Dolphins and Whales (5 p.m.), The Itinerarium di Petrarca: A Haptic Trail (5.30 p.m.), Nine Physics (5.30pm), Neanderthal knowledge (6.00pm), 10 cents sickness (6.00pm), “living” material from bacteria and fungi (6.00pm), Nuvolario (6pm) The universe is tidy (7pm) .

With Saverio Russo, former Professor of Industrial Chemistry at the University of Genoa, we talk about using bacteria and fungi to create biomaterials for construction, such as cement and bricks, with “living” conference materials from bacteria and fungi, at 6 pm at Sala delle Grida in Palazzo della Borsa (also in live broadcast). At 6 p.m. at Mog, Sarah Zampello, who designs interventions to teach reading and creates storytelling workshops in schools and libraries, and illustrator Susie Zanella invite you to look at the sky with new eyes at Nuvolario. Together with Guido Gnone, Scientific Coordinator of the Genoa Aquarium, we discover whales in the Mediterranean with a 5pm dolphin and whale mapping meeting in the Genoa Aquarium organized by the Amici dell’Acquario Association. Appointments continue with cafes and scientific shows. Scientific Coffee Tracks 10 Cent’s Disease With Agnese Collino, the Umberto Veronesi Foundation’s Scientific Supervisor at 6 p.m. (Ostello bello), the stages of polio control and the innovations they brought about are still relevant.

In the Teatro della Tosse (Dino Campana room), at 7 pm, the universe is a mattress from the Compagnia del Sole, where Time itself tells the story of time, Cronus: the first emperor of the universe and then after his defeat by his son Zeus, who ends up becoming more and more on the sidelines.

In addition to the in-person program, the Science Project is shown live! Created with the support of the Compagnia di San Paolo Foundation and in cooperation with Orientamenti, it offers a fully digital schedule of 59 online activities including workshops, meetings and virtual guided tours to schools. In this way, students and their teachers can also participate directly from the classroom or from home, choosing from online laboratories (digilab), webinars, live meetings (digitalk) and virtual visits to major research institutes (digitour).
