Biologists' Night is a unique opportunity to take a behind-the-scenes look at the work of scientists. The event participants will be able to see modern laboratory equipment, talk with scientists, doctoral students and undergraduates, learn about current research directions at the faculty, as well as get familiar with the work of research teams and student science clubs. This is a unique opportunity to experience contemporary biology and the fascinating nature of research.
The event is inclusive and accessible to everyone – the programme includes proposals for preschoolers, primary and high school students, as well as any adult interested in science.
In line with the campaign's objectives, participation in all activities is free, and the programme has been designed with participants of all ages in mind – from preschoolers, through primary and high school students, to adult science enthusiasts. Lectures, workshops and demonstrations will be held in three adjacent buildings of our faculty, as well as at the Natural History Museum University of Lodz. The wide range of activities offers something for everyone.
