across the country, and From October 17 to 24, the National Science and Technology Week will be celebrated. UNCUYO will be a party with its own agenda that will seek to bring to light the knowledge created by its scientific community.
These dissemination initiatives will be developed at various points on campus and in university schools. Within the planned activities, three proposals stand out that will result from the synergy of the various agents of the University.
On Wednesday, 19 advanced students and research fellows will visit university schools to offer a “science holiday.” It is a class workshop that seeks to strengthen the scientific vocations in the field of solid sciences in students of past years. With the help of those responsible for the laboratory of each school, experiments with classroom items will be conducted. It is a special activity for these students.
While, On Thursday 20 will be held “Science dominates the media” Which consists of nested programming and content related to the research carried out by the university. To access, you only need Tune in to Radio U or play Señal U on channel 30 of TDA or enter the Unidiversidad news portal.
finally, On Friday 21, three women scientists will be the protagonists of a conversation in which they will attempt to debunk myths and mark the local scientific agenda based on their work. In “UNCUYO’s Magnifying Glass in the Hands of Her Scholars” Beatrice Bragoni, Fabiana Graselli and Nadia Panaud will tell what they are looking for and what they have undergone personal experiences to reach their current position in the scientific life. The meeting – moderated by Victoria Bocanegra – will be from 11, in the CICUNC central drum. Those who wish to participate can register here.
