The northern performing arts festival Noorderzon will be held 18-28 August in Groningen. Again this year, our department is participating in the science pavillion Qu3, and there will be two exhibitions: the Living Cell and our DNA lab.

Every night there will be 3 people from the department to explain all the research that is being performed in the department to the public.
