MRC Come & See Marc Abrahams: Improbable Research and the Ig Nobel Prizes
Event Information
Description
The Ig Nobel Prizes honour things that make people LAUGH, then THINK. Every year, genuine Nobel laureates introduce ten new Ig Nobel winners, at Harvard University in the US. The UK has been a prodigious producer of Ig Nobel winners.
Join Ig Nobel founder Marc Abrahams as he brings us up to date!
Marc Abrahams founded the Ig Nobel Prize ceremony in 1991 and has since written columns, books and operas. He is considered the nation's guru of academic grunge.
