Online Sciathon Projects 2021

From 10–12 September 2021, Lindau Alumni worked in 30 approved project groups in four categories. We were glad to have such a broad variety of ideas and concepts! Find more information on the topics, projects and results below.

Our Topics

The main topics are based on the panel discussions of the 70th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting.  We looked to our interdisciplinary community to develop further projects to address the big questions in the future of science.
