View meetingThe Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences is pleased to invite you to the award of the 2023 Gilles Holst Medal to Petra de Jongh and the 2023 Bakhuis Roozeboom Medal to Shlomo Havlin. The medals are awarded every four years to researchers who make important contributions to application-oriented physics or chemistry and phase theory respectively.
View webinarFor scientific integrity, most researchers are governed by the 2018 Netherlands Code of Conduct for Research Integrity. What are your experiences with that code and what should be modified in a subsequent version?
View webinarFrench climate researcher Sandrine Bony will receive this year’s Buys Ballot Medal. She has been awarded this prize in recognition of her pioneering research on the role of clouds in the climate system, and specifically in climate change.
View webinarClimate Narratives: Art, Science and Climate: Aiming for Impact
View webinarAlthough current grid investments are at unprecedented levels, network capacity shortages are currently more the rule than the exception. In this webinar, we will view this theme from three different angles.
View webinarHow might scientific institutions increase the impact of their research and what is the role of artists and creatives in this science-policy interface?
View webinarIn Revolutionary Spring. Europe aflame and the fight for a new world, 1848-1849 Christopher Clark describes 1848 as ‘the particle collision chamber at the center of the European nineteenth century’, a moment when political movements and ideas were tested and transformed. The insurgents asked questions that sound modern to our ears.
View webinarA symposium on vaccination of older adults and on vaccine hesitancy.
View webinarReasoning about causal relationships is an important topic across the sciences. Last year's Nobel Prize in Economics was awarded to Guido Imbens, foreign member of the KNAW. Together with Joshua Angrist, he received the prize for their central role in shaping how researchers understand and analyse causal relationships, using natural experiments. These are situations arising in real life that resemble randomised experiments, e.g. arising from natural random variations, institutional rules or policy changes.
View webinarOn 14 December, Neth-ER is hosting a hybrid event on Science for Policy in EU member states. How do we better connect science with policymaking in and between member states?
View webinarDespite its many secrets and wonders, oceans have been under threat for years. Corals are dying and sea life is disappearing. Although this is a global phenomenon, some people are affected more than others—and as with many a climate issue, these inequalities bear witness of the afterlife of (post)colonialism. In this talk, we shed light on the ambiguous nature of marine protection and the colonial dimensions of ocean health.
View webinarWhat to keep, what to discard, how to remember? An exploration of transitional areas of theory and practice in the fiels of art, film and beyond, organized by the Akademie van Kunsten on the occasion of the exhibition 'Fiona Tan - Mountains and Molehills' at Eye.
