This year, the popular Science Slam of the University of Würzburg is celebrating its tenth anniversary – a great reason to host not just one, but two exciting evenings:

Friday, 7 November 2025, 7:00–9:00 p.m. – the regular competition
Saturday, 8 November 2025, 7:00–9:00 p.m. – the “Best of” from ten years of Science Slam

The stage will be set in the lecture hall building Z6 on the Hubland Campus.

We are especially delighted that Hannes Taubenböck, the 2024 winner and head of our Chair of Global Urbanization and Remote Sensing, will open the evening on Friday with a special slam performance – setting the tone for this anniversary edition as last year’s champion.

At the start of the evening on Friday, Hannes Taubenböck will take the stage out of competition, followed by seven scientists, each with seven minutes to present their research.
The “Best of” event on Saturday will feature selected highlights from the past ten years.

Why you shouldn’t miss it:

• Entertaining and engaging talks from a wide range of disciplines – from physics and geography to medicine.

• The audience decides: enthusiasm and applause determine the winner.

• Admission: only €6 per evening – proceeds support the Deutschlandstipendium scholarship program, which funds dedicated students.

A quick heads-up:

Tickets are limited – and, according to the organizers, already in high demand. So if you want to join in, don’t wait too long!
Tickets are available at the Falkenhaus on the market square, the student representation at the Hubland Campus, the libraries of the University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt (THWS) in Würzburg and Schweinfurt, and from the staff council of the Würzburg University Hospital.

We look forward to two inspiring and entertaining evenings full of science, creativity, and great atmosphere – join us and experience how research can be exciting and alive!
