What?
This month’s lecture is on the ‘Carbon Dating: Connecting Sciences’. Hans van der Plicht is an expert on carbon-14 dating. In his field of research he needs to work close with biologists, archaeologists, climatologists, even with politicians(!) and many more disciplines. What is that like to cover this many sciences and work together with such a diverse team? And how does C-14 dating work and why is it so accurate? Come to the borrel lecture to satisfy your curiosity.
As a bachelor student you have to make choices about your tracks, research places and eventually a master. It can be quite difficult to get a complete picture of all that our University has to offer. Of course, the one-sided areas are easy to image. More interesting are the areas where two or more sciences meet. The monthly borrel lectures give interactive insight in these multidisciplinary areas that push the limits of science. Followed by free drinks and snacks (borrel) there is room for informal discussion.
