Masterminds takes you through the history of science, featuring ground-breaking research and major scientific discoveries at the University of Groningen. From the story of its founding, via the first electric car and the first female student Aletta Jacobs, to the contemporary research of Nobel prize winner Ben Feringa and his nano car.

Eight figureheads of science, such as the versatile Petrus Camper and the ingenious Sibrandus Stratingh, show the challenges faced by Groningen scientists. Historical objects illustrate the developments in modern science. Experience what science is all about, see how scientists work in a laboratory and become acquainted with scientific experiments. For the exhibition Masterminds an audio guide and an interactive tour are available.
