Science meets Comic
Über Science Streets
science streets is a science communication project that brings science into everyday life by transforming Leipzig’s public spaces into places of learning. For four weeks in August 2026, science comics will be displayed on advertising spaces, such as advertising pillars, city-light posters, information screens, and public transport. With this year’s theme being neuroscience, we are part of the Science Year 2026 – Medicine of the future. Eleven scientists and eleven illustrators will be selected to collaborate on comics about the brain: the scientists provide the content, while the illustrators bring it to life artistically. At the "Art & Science Open Air", which hosts our closing event funded by the Daimler und Benz Stiftung, you can dive even deeper into the topics.
