Welcome to our renewed blog

The first few months of 2020 have been a rollercoaster. We started off January busy with the organization of the Pint of Science festival. Then, in March, covid-19 decided to mix everything up. We moved the festival to September, but later we unfortunately had to decide to cancel the festival. We still have our passion for sharing science (and beer). Therefore, we decided to look for new ways to bring science to you. Therefore, we decided to renew our blog! We asked scientists to write about their research. Dr. Alex van Venrooij teaches sociology at the University of Amsterdam. He wrote an article in which he tells about the journey of techno and house music to Europe and how his research came to be. You can read all about it next monday. We would also like to introduce you to Dr. Edwin Koster, he writes about his experience with the incorporation of philosophy in science education. His blog will be posted the 10th of august. As you may have noticed, we also recently started with online events. Here, scientists discus their research and answer your questions. Check out our online events here . In addition, you can now check out what is going on behind the screens of Pint of Science in our first ever podcast ! Cheers! Eline van Bloois
