NODES at the European Researchers’ Night 2025 Join us in Turin, Pavia, Como, Busto Arsizio, and Aosta with the researchers of the NODES Ecosystem and many initiatives to explore the world of research.
On Friday 26 and Saturday 27 September 2025, the European Researchers' Night returns — an initiative promoted by the European Commission that every year involves thousands of researchers and research institutions across Europe.
NODES and researchers from the 7 Spokes will be present at various locations with labs, stands, workshops, exhibitions, guided tours, and free events open to the public.
