Big Thank you to all the volunteers and speakers who made the @UppsalaSoapbox science possible yesterday!! It was such an amazing experience to share science with all of you!! Looking forward to next year's @UppsalaSoapbox !!
Second round of @SoapboxScience speakers just finished!! It is awesome to see more and more people coming by! If you are around the city center come to Celsiustorget and get immersed in this amazing science!
Are you planning to go to the city center? How curious are you? Come a listen to these 12 amazing women scientists explaining the research they do!! 👩🏼🔬⚗️We will be at Celsiustorget from 13-16h!⏰ @SoapboxScience @UU_University @_SLU
Do Chemicals Cause Infertility?
Dra. Ida Hallberg is a veterinary and researcher in the Department of Reproduction at the Department of Clinical Sciences at @_SLU. She will talk about environmental toxins and possible effects on early embryonic development. Do not miss it!
Orsakar kemikalier infertilitet?
Dra. Ida Hallberg är veterinär och forskare på avdelningen för reproduktion på institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper på @_SLU. Hon kommer att prata om miljögifter och möjliga effekter på tidig embryonal utveckling. Missa det inte!
Have you ever wondered which are the first steps in finding a drug? Stefanie Kampen, a PhD student from the @CarlssonLab at @UU_University, will explain the first steps in finding a drug against Parkinson’s disease. Do not miss it!!
