ISPRA participates in the Rome Science Festival 2026

Apr 15, 2026 — Apr 19, 2026 Rome, Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone

From April 15 to 19, 2026, the Rome Science Festival returns to the Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone.

The universe and life are not static entities, but the result of an unceasing dance between chaos and order. This dynamic balance manifests itself at every scale of reality: from the origins of the Big Bang to the mathematical structures of seashells, all the way to the complexity of human thought, where billions of electrical impulses coordinate to generate consciousness and emotions.

This duality does not belong solely to science, but permeates every form of human expression and structure.

Chaos and harmony are not opposites, but complementary forces. Exploring their dialogue is essential to understanding change and facing the future with greater awareness.
