Explore some of the most exciting and cutting edge topics in scientific research. All are welcome!

The 2024 Nobel prizes in Physics, Chemistry, and Medicine will be announced in October. Faculty from University of Notre Dame and Indiana University South Bend will provide background on understanding the research that led to receiving one of the highest recognitions in science at an international level. This will be a discussion panel and opportunity to ask questions of people with expertise in these areas of research.

Our Universe Revealed is a partnership between the University of Notre Dame, Indiana University South Bend and St. Joseph County Public Library. It allows local experts to explore topics in science and wider research with the public in an accessible way through talks and events. No technical background is needed – we believe that science and cutting edge research should be available to everyone!
