LunchTalk - From Data Buffet to Hypothesis Kitchens - which serves science better?

In this lunch talk we will discuss the pros and cons of data driven versus hypothesis driven research.

The idea behind our "Lunch Talk" (with Pizza!!) is to introduce and discuss academic topics, on which there might be controversy. The target group consists of PhD students, but everybody is welcome and diverse opinions are encouraged.

In a casual atmosphere, people interested in attending this debate can enjoy pizza or bring their own lunchbag/Sandwich.

If you would like to enjoy a few slices of PIZZA and are prepared to pay a contribution of €5, please write PIZZA next to your name in the registration form (e.g. Esther M._Pizza). We will then order the big family pizzas from Pizzaboxx and make sure they are delivered just before the lunch talk starts. We only order vegetarian pizzas to make it easier.
