Comment/Description

Dr. Martin Georg Bleichner is offering a half-day workshop titled "Night Science and Creativity: Where Do Good Research Questions Come From?" This workshop is designed to introduce the concept of "Night Science," as described by Yanai and Lercher, and create a stimulating environment where students can explore the origins of scientific questions and ideas.

"Night Science" emphasizes the imaginative and exploratory side of research, where creativity and curiosity drive the formation of new hypotheses and research directions. This workshop aims to equip students with tools and strategies to enhance their creative thinking, helping them develop innovative research questions and approaches within their fields. The detailed workshop schedule is outlined below.

By the end of this workshop, participants will have a deeper understanding of the significance of creativity in research and practical tools to enhance their scientific inquiry.

Guest: Dr. Daniel Hölle former doctoral researcher at Neuropsychology Lab, now working in the area of science communication
