Great Minds Exposed - top scientists that change the world with their extraordinary discoveries

8 September 2022

During Great Minds Exposed, a FREE two-day live event consisting of multiple inspiring lectures, you will have the opportunity to get a glimpse into the minds of the top international scientists of our time, like Robert Zatorre, who demonstrated that music acts on our reward system in the same way that food does, or Carl Folke, who is at the forefront of influential concepts such as the ecological footprint.

Meet the top international scientists who have been awarded the Heineken Prizes of 2020 and 2022

What do their milestones mean for other scientists and for our society? What challenges did they face and what obstacles did they overcome? And what drives them to give their all every day for fundamental science?

Join this event and you will discover the answers to these questions!
