Liquids that change color or turn into smoke, space monsters that are actually microbes magnified under a microscope. It seems like magic, but it's science. It looks like a real image, but it was created by Artificial Intelligence. Anyone who wants to satisfy their curiosity and have fun learning with workshops and games can do so thanks to the European Researchers' Night. The University of Sassari participates in the initiative promoted by the European Commission as part of the Marie Curie Actions and coordinated in Italy by the SHARPER – Sharing Researchers' Passion for Education and Rights project.
