    Periodic table of the elements – a smashing hit

    A great turn-up of 80 persons for the NKS-lecture on Tuesday, with invited speaker Eivind Torgersen presenting the periodic table of the elements, or perhaps more precisely, demonstrating how to present the Periodic table, and by implication, other aspects of chemistry, to non-chemists and other unfortunates. Co-organizer Louise Emblem Bergsjø shared her very own and very tasteful take on the Periodic table of the elements, a certain success irrespective of education and training!

    NKS inviterer: Periodesystemet for alle

     I 2019 skal vi feire at det er 150 år siden det aller første periodesystemet. 

    Kjemikere og andre naturvitere trenger ingen forklaring på hvorfor FN har gjort 2019 til periodesystemets år. Men hva med humanistene og samfunnsviterne? Journalist og forfatter Eivind Torgersen har et bein i hver leir og vil fortelle hvordan skal vi snakke med dem om grunnstoffer og om det periodiske system uten å vekke gammelt ubehag og vonde minner om matteangst og dårlige naturfagkarakterer!  

    Påmelding her eller til Louise.bergsjo@uib.no

    Velkommen i Auditorium 3  den 19. mars kl.18.
