FisiCittà: Trento City of Physics

In occasion of the 103rd National Conference of the Italian Physics Society, Trento will host meetings and dissemination events for the entire community, from 11 to 15 September.

The 103rd edition of the National Conference of the Italian Physics Society, taking place in Trento from 11 to 15 September 2017 at the Department of  Physics of the University of Trento (Povo), traditionally gathers nearly 600 Italian physicists and represents an opportunity for scientific exchange and reflection of a large scientific community expressing a range of cultural and research interests.

Yet, the programme of events - all of them with free admission - aims at the popularization of physics, and addresses also those people who have never come across this science. 

The Organizing Committee has in fact included a rich program of side events  with dissemination initiatives dedicated to high school students and others open to citizens, among which we mention:

- Theatrical Show "emozionare con la Scienza" (Creating excitement through science)
