Tonight was the last evening of our @pintofscienceBE !
During 3 days researchers presented their work in bars all over Belgium 🇧🇪 .

I want to thank all the volunteers, all the researchers and everyone that came and made those events a true success ❤️

Great last night at @pintofscienceBE ✨

Today we had Dustin and Katrien presenting their work on heart and brain 🧠🫀They showed us how cancer treatment can affect our cardiovascular system and how long COVID impacts mental health.

See you next year!

What a blast today in the @pintofscienceBE!

We learnt about the wonders of the brain by Catho and Renata ✨ They brought us closer to the adaptation of the brain in space and stroke recovery 🤯

And we built our own Play-Doh brains🧠 Look at the winners from @CMN_VIB!

It's on! What a great evening at Café Boekowski for @pintofscienceBE ✨

Thanks to Ermanno and Andrea we learnt how pigments in paintings degrade with time and how understanding the chemistry of this process is changing restoration science 🎨 🖌️ #pint24
