Since 1987 the 1,600-seat Colosseo Theatre in Torino, Italy, has been a science showcase with lively, interactive presentations by renowned scientists, researchers and science writers. Through films, theatrical dramatization, demonstrations and laboratory experiments, this weekly journey into the world of science can certainly be considered the most remarkable of its kind in Italy and also one of the most important and long-running in Europe. With the current edition, GiovedìScienza celebrates its 25th anniversary by making its talks available in English. Each encounter is broadcast live in Italian and is then available for streaming in English and Italian a week after the event by connecting to the archive.

The programme of GiovedìScienza runs from November 2010 to March 2011. To know more about GiovedìScienza and to watch the lecture you are interested in, go to www.giovediscienza.org
