International students and staff explored the science of life

On October 8, around 100 international students and internationally recruited staff joined Unimeet Gothenburg for a visit to Wisdome at Universeum to experience the immersive film Chemistry of Life. 

The film took participants on a fascinating journey into the microscopic world where life begins. Through Wisdome’s 360-degree screen and advanced 3D visualisation, visitors travelled inside a leaf, explored the brain’s network of neurons and discovered how all living things are connected through cells and the processes that sustain life.

The 3D glasses and immersive technology offered a unique way to experience science from new perspectives, making complex biological and chemical processes easier to understand and explore.

Wisdome at Universeum is Sweden’s largest visualisation dome. Built on world-leading visualisation research from Linköping University, it combines immersive storytelling and cutting-edge technology to make science accessible, engaging and inspiring for visitors of all ages.

The activity is one of many organised by Unimeet Gothenburg to showcase the city and all it has to offer. The aim is to help international students, researchers, and university staff explore Gothenburg.

Unimeet Gothenburg is a collaboration between the University of Gothenburg, Chalmers University of Technology, and The Trade & Industry Group at Göteborg & Co, aimed at strengthening the exchange between the universities’ international students and researchers and the business community, creating cultural and social meeting places, as well as networking opportunities.
