Every year, the European Researchers’ Night takes place in the last week of September and this time the HYLIGHT project was present. Anna Ferrer from IBEC gave a talk to young students from a school in Barcelona about embryo development. In addition, an infographic explaining the project is available on the Catalan website of the event.
The European Researchers’ Night is a significant public event held simultaneously in various cities across Europe. During this event, researchers showcase different scientific disciplines and demonstrate their influence on daily life through engaging and interactive activities. The primary goal is to strengthen the relationship between the public and the scientific community, encourage interest in STEAM careers, and celebrate research accomplishments. The event also highlights exceptional research initiatives from Europe and beyond. Each year, approximately 1.5 million participants engage with and explore the world of science.
As part of this event, the Catalan organisation proposed a complementary activity aimed at students, called “Science mornings”, in which different researchers went into classrooms to explain scientific topics. Anna Ferrer took this opportunity to talk about the development of the human embryo and assisted reproduction with a presentation entitled: “How we are when no one knows we are: the first days of the human embryo”.
