Madrid is one of some 350 European cities that hosts every year a series of open-house events to mark European Researchers Night. Aimed at raising awareness and interest in science among the public at large, the initiative is being organized by the Madrid regional authority, through its department of Science, Universities and Innovation, and coordinated by the Madri+d Foundation.

This year CNIO will bring science to your home. It will be on November the 27th, 2020, from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., with the activity Meet the scientists, be a scientist. We would like to show our Centre, learn about the day-to-day procedures, do an experiment (DNA extraction) and have the opportunity to interact with our scientists as a ‘speed dating’. The event will be held online and we will send you the materials and instructions for performing the experiment. There’s just one question that nobody knows how to answer: Who has the most fun, the visitors or the scientists? We are waiting for you!

Registrations are required and can be made from November 16, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. in the following link: https://apps.cnio.es/app/Eventos/NocheInvestigadores/
