Cultural events and associations

Cultural events

The University of Pisa organises initiatives and events aimed at engaging a wider community beyond the academic sphere with cutting-edge scientific research.

Bright-Night

One of these initiatives is BRIGHT-NIGHT – the European Researchers’ Night, an event promoted by the European Commission with the goal of spreading scientific culture and highlighting the social impact of research.
It offers an opportunity to explore the fascinating world of science and to meet those who have made scientific research their daily mission.
