The nationwide series Heimspiel Wissenschaft brings scientists together with citizens in their rural hometowns.

The researchers answer questions and discuss with their guests. Everyone who finds the topic exciting is invited - including people who normally have little or nothing to do with scientific research in their everyday lives. Questions and requests from the public about research in general are also discussed.

In ‘Heimspiel Wissenschaft’ on 11th of april 2025, Friederike Schulz invites you to Gusow-Platkow to talk about language in old age!
Don't want to miss this interesting event? Then register by 2nd of april 2025 using the registration form on our german webiste!

When: 11.04.2025 | 6:00pm

Where: Protestant community centre
               Karl-Liebknecht-Platz 2
               15306 Gusow-Platkow

This format enables encounters and a very personal exchange between researchers and citizens in rural areas, which is often only reached to a limited extent by traditional scientific communication formats.

Researchers who grew up in rural areas and would like to talk about their work with people in their local area in public places such as the pub around the corner, the community centre, the clubhouse or the village square can register here using the form.

Heimspiel Wissenschaft is a joint project of the German Rectors' Conference, the science communication agency con gressa and the #WisskommLab at Heidelberg University. It was funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research until 2024 as part of the `Wissenschaftsjahre` initiative and will be continued by various universities from 2025.
