Top scientists from around the world discuss innovations and challenges of our time while celebrating science: that's what the Falling Walls Science Summit is all about.
One of the highlights of the program is the Falling Walls Lab, where 100 young scientists and innovators present their projects to a jury consisting of world-class scientists and representatives of major multinational companies. We are very pleased that this year's Czech representative, Anıl Axel Tellbüscher, who won the Falling Walls Lab Czech Republic 2023 competition, is studying at the Faculty of Fisheries and Protection of Waters, University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice. His Falling Walls Lab presentation on nutrient capture and recovery methods in aquaculture can be viewed here.
During the summit, it was confirmed that the Falling Walls is not about competition, but about meaningful connection and collaboration. It emerged from many interviews that at a time when many of the fruits of scientific discovery are already "harvested", it is unlikely that a lone scientist will conduct research of global importance, and it is not surprising that the most influential contributions have been the result of extraordinary interdisciplinary work.
