Try citizen science for yourself
A series of citizen science workshops at Masaryk University will show that almost anyone can contribute to real research — and sometimes all you need is a smartphone.
April is dedicated to citizen science, which connects researchers with the public and shows that high-quality data and new knowledge can emerge beyond academia.
Come to the event Citizen Science over Coffee: When One Scientist Is Not Enough and experience science in a different way. You can look forward to a fun quiz full of surprises, interesting facts, and “aha moments” from the world of citizen science.Join in and discover how the public can contribute to research—sometimes using nothing more than a mobile phone.
The event takes place as part of April as the Month of Citizen Science at Masaryk University and is open to everyone—students, staff, and the general public. Come on your own or with friends, grab a coffee, and get involved.
...Because sometimes one scientist is simply not enough.
