Animation videos for new QPlayLearn Platform.

We are excited and proud to be contributing to the new QPlayLearn platform. We have created the first two short animated videos on Quantum Science within the Discover areas of QPlayLearn.
QPlayLearn is a free online platform that lets anyone explore the concepts behind quantum technology, developed by researchers at the Universities of Turku and Helsinki, and Aalto University, supported by IBM and other partners.
The launch event took place online here on the afternoon of the 14 December, featuring talks, videos and games from researchers from across Europe and hosted by Finnish science communicators, Kari Enqvist and Esko Valtaoja. Both of our videos were showcased on this very engaging event, our Scientific Director Marcos Valdes were invited to partecipate in the panel of speakers in dialogue with professor Sabrina Maniscalco.

The event’s recording can be seen at this link.

ENGAGE, Successful Scientific Communication & Outreach

We have just ended the first edition of ENGAGE, a VIS, SNS and INAF initiative addressed to all those who deal with the communication and dissemination of science. The feedback was extremely positive both in terms of registrations and evaluation of the workshop by the participants. ENGAGE, which was supposed to take place at Palazzo Strozzi on November 19-21, 2020, has switched to online mode, distributed over several days and on its own platform, using Google Meet for video conferences.

Thanks again to all the participants and speakers for the exceptional experience, we’re already working on next year’s edition!

ENGAGE provides added value and expertise aimed at professional growth in a sector of fundamental importance.
