Thank you @BerlinSciWeek for partnering with us to create three events at this year's Campus programme! We were thrilled to share #interdisciplinary knowledge of #daylight at this festival of science and incorporate it into our own #DaylightWeek.
As Day 2 of the CAMPUS slowly draws to a close 💔 (but we’re not done yet — programming continues until 20:30!), it’s time to give a huge shoutout to our incredible programme partners. 👏 🎉 Here’s to everyone making the CAMPUS programme & exhibitions possible! 🙏
