What is the WEdnesday SALON?
A public event at the Complexity Science Hub where leading scientists explore big questions in language everyone can understand. No background knowledge needed.
Inspired by Vienna’s turn-of-the-century salons, the WEdnesday SALON brings science into an open conversation – inviting everyone to listen, ask questions, and join the discussion. It’s a SALON for the WE.
🎤 This WEdnesday SALON will be moderated by scientist Mirta Galesic.
