FROM SCIENCE TO SOCIETY

How does scientific research affect our daily lives? Learn about the journey from science to society, originally designed for the Round Tower in Copenhagen, and now shown here at the University Library of Southern Denmark.

The Society for the Dissemination of Natural Science (SNU) was founded by Hans Christian Ørsted in 1824 with the ambition of conveying science and technology to the Danish population.
The exhibition “From Science to Society” marks SNU’s 200th anniversary and demonstrates how research impacts all of us — from Ørsted’s discovery of electromagnetism, which gave us electricity, to Niels Bohr’s atomic model, which has led to new diagnostic methods, nuclear power and modern electronics.
