Each year, different themes are explored, and they are approached from different angles. In general, one finds here a good sample of what scientific research at the university is about.The texts in this book are the result of this year's series of lectures, covering a wide range of topics: from genetics to psychotherapy, from food in Africa to functional food, from human retroviruses to sports, from history to university education. For students it will serve as a textbook; for all others it can be an introduction to different themes of contemporary science. |
