What is the Falling Walls Lab?

The Global scientific Conference” Falling Walls Lab” was founded on November 9, 2009 on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the falling of the Berlin Wall  by leading scientists in Europe with the support of the German government in Berlin. The slogan of the conference is “Which walls will fall next?”. The ‘walls” were the challenges and problems that humanity faced with.
