A Compassionate Spy

Natuurkundige Ted Hall was de jongste wetenschapper die meewerkte aan de ontwikkeling van de plutoniumbom. In 1951, op het hoogtepunt van de Koude Oorlog, deelde hij geheime nucleaire informatie met de Sovjet-Unie om een wereldwijde catastrofe te voorkomen. A Compassionate Spy brengt dit unieke verhaal tot leven in een zinderende spionagethriller. 

TALK International students and university employees are closely monitored in The Netherlands. The reason? What if knowledge from our country is used abroad for the wrong purposes? At the same time, everyone has the right to get education. Also the wish to make scientific knowledge publicly available is broadly shared. When is gaining knowledge an act of sharing, and when would it be considered stealing? Ying Wang (University of Twente), Anneke Zuiderwijk (TU Delft), and Pieter Wolters (Radboud University Nijmegen) discuss the fine lines with each other and the audience.
