Science Slam
A science slam is an innovative way of communicating science, where researchers share their own scientific work, within a set time limit, with an audience devoid of specialised knowledge.
The aim of WCM 2025 Brazil science slam is to make complex science engaging and accessible to a broad audience in an entertaining way. Join us at the Science Slam WCM 2025 and bring your mollusk research to life on stage.
In just six minutes, you’ll have the chance to captivate the audience with your research. All presentation formats and tools are welcome! The audience will vote for the presentation they find most engaging, and the winner will be crowned the Slam King or Queen. Aside from the admiration and applause, there’s also a special prize waiting for the victor.
Whether your research is ongoing or already completed, we especially encourage young scientists to take part in this fun and interactive event.
