Video Series Gets Up Close and Personal with Lindau Meeting Scientists
A new video series produced by Nature Publishing Group features some of the key conversations that took place this year between Nobel laureates and aspiring young scientists at the 60th annual Lindau Nobel Laureates Meeting in Germany.
Every summer since 1951, an extraordinary meeting between Nobel Laureates and young scientists has taken place on Lindau Island in Germany. At 2010’s cross-disciplinary meeting this summer, Nature Publishing Group's video team followed five young students as they met their Nobel idols. You might think a senior biologist and a young engineer have little in common, but these encounters threw up plenty of ideas across disciplines and generations. This trailer offers a glimpse of the films that follow, including a special film celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Lindau Meetings.
