Update...

Finally found: An international participant in a science slam on videotape and published online!
In mid-february there was a science slam taking place at the "Lido" a popular venue located close to the center of Berlin, Germany. Amongst other contesters Vinay Rambai, an international participant ventured into the scienceslam and proved his skills with the topic "The Good, the Bad, and the Kidney" with which he succesfully competed other contesters and was declared the winner. So feel free to check out his presentation which is placed in this blog under Scienceslam.

We hope that this might inspire and motivate one or another to give his or her own presentation about a juicy topic and to stand up against other interesting talks. We welcome you to share your interest with us to start slamming in the near future.

Unrivalled and unprecedented: ScienceSlam International

First there were assumptions, now it has been revealed and confirmed: This is the first and only international Science Slam blog for the purpose of spreading the idea science slamming and scientific communication not only nationwide, but worldwide.

However, as every beginning is difficult, the idea and the benefits can only be carried further and maintained when we collect the interest, participate and spread the word to become a new and unique community.

ScienceSlam? Never heard...

As ScienceSlam might sound new to some of you out there, soon there will be a file uploaded which imparts a bunch of facts, numbers and examples of slams that have been held in the past. However if there are burning issues that need to be mentioned, go to contact and just ask for clarification.
