Voices from the Community
“Events such as Science in the City are important because they create a platform for scientists and researchers to share their work with a broad audience. This not only allows the public to understand how research grants are contributing to knowledge and innovation, but also provides visibility to the wide range of research taking place on our islands.”
– Prof. Alexandra Bonnici, Malta Chamber of Scientists
“Science in the city is the future.”
