Details and agenda

MIT Alumni Club of Switzerland invites you to a unique evening conversation and social moment with Marc Abrahams, founder of the Ig Nobel Prize taking place in Zurich for the first time ever.
Looking throughout its history, this dialogue will explore the role of science, the good, the bad and the funny. We explore the implications of the decision of moving the event outside the USA (the 36th ceremony will take place in Switzerland on September 3, 2026).
