Lisa Recnik
Austria Director
After having met Pint of Science in the UK and France, I couldn’t help bringing this amazing idea to my home country! I love to mix up languages in conversations, climb yet another mountain or anticipate the next book to add to my bookshelf. I'm so excited about #pint20! :)
Guillaume Corradino
Belgium Director
Passionate about space and green technologies, my day job is to support and promote European research. After more than 10 years living in Belgium I have lost faith in meteorology but I am very excited to help put some science in Belgian pints!
Marina Manganaro
Croatia Director
Chaotic Astroparticle Physicist, focused on extra-galactic sources: I participated in Pint of Science Tenerife and loved it! So I had to start it in my new home, Croatia. I am an enthusiastic Linux user, Dungeon Master and coffee addicted. People always tell me that I am unstoppable!
Elodie Chabrol
France & International Director
Hyperactive neuroscientist who loves sci-comm! I jumped into the Pint of Science adventure the first year in London, then founded the French one and now I help new countries to launch the festival. My mission? Make science accessible to everyone, everywhere!
Maíra Torres
Germany Director
I’m a Brazilian PhD student at Gene Center (LMU) and my work involves the characterization of jumping genes in a context of neurodegenerative diseases. But better than be in the lab is talk and discuss science with a cold pint on hand!
Jule Schlee
Germany Director
I‘m a curiosity-driven neuroscientist with also a strong focus on science communication and women in STEM. I love not only teaching people of different scientific topics but also just chatting with them while having a pint.

Alessia Tricomi
Italy Director
I decided that I would become a Physicist when I was 10 years old and all my friends dreamed of being a princess. All in all I did not go wrong! Being a researcher has opened the door to a very precious kingdom: that of knowledge. Particles, cats, pottery and sailing are my sparkling world!

PhD in Biomedicine, I investigate the effect of the tumour environment on cancer growth and how we can use nanoparticles to improve diagnosis and treatment. I love music, science communication and design. In a local team of Pint of Science Spain since 2018... 2022 is the best year to arrive to the n…
Carine Signoret
Sweden Director
I am a cognitive psychologist using neuro-imagery techniques to understand how human brain operates to allow communication, which is decisive in sharing ideas and thoughts. Being involved in the organization of Pint of Science seems then more than natural for me!
Silvia Cardellino
