Ig Nobel Face-to-Face 2025 at the MIT Museum

Per Wikipedia. The Ig Nobel Prize (/ˌɪɡnoʊˈbɛl/) is a satiric prize awarded annually since 1991 to celebrate ten unusual or trivial achievements in scientific research. Its aim is to "honor achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think." The name of the award is a pun on the Nobel Prize, which it parodies, and on the word ignoble.

You have to buy an admission to the museum ($18) to able to go to the lecture. But after the lecture we are exploring the museum. I recommend buying tickets in advance.

About the event
The very first Ig Nobel ceremony was held in the former MIT Museum building in 1991. We're excited to now host a new twist on this very popular celebration of scientific achievement in our new space. Ig Nobel: Face to Face brings 2025 Ig Nobel Prize winners together, in-person, with the opportunity to ask each other questions about their work, and answer questions from the audience. The event will be hosted by Improbable Research Founder Marc Abrahams
