Can you explain your work to a nine-year-old?

Then Vuurvliegen is the perfect challenge for you! During this event, researchers present their work to a curious and enthusiastic audience of primary school children.

The goal? Make science come alive—fun, engaging, and accessible!

Why participate:

  • Improve your presentation skills with hands-on coaching

  • Learn how to tell a clear and captivating science story

  • Inspire the next generation of scientists

Researchers will receive a short training session on 16 June to learn how to present to children!

When: July 3, 2025
Time: 12:00 – 14:00
