Part Of Official Scheme? | No |

Primary Audience | Public/other audiences |
Results and Impact | Our 2011 program featured more than 50 lectures, demonstrations, interactive events, live experiments, games and performances by academics, including Ph.D. students and postdocs, as well as professional communicators of science. We aim to educate as well as entertain and to target people who may be unfamiliar with or even hostile towards "science." In line with our approach, "science by stealth," we explicitly target festivals and events where science is not normally found - the traditional doma Guerilla Science has featured in The Times, The Guardian, Scientific American, Getty Images, The Telegraph and more. |
