Suggestion to know How and where science is produced It will be held this Saturday at the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology of Conicet/UNR (IBR), in the fifth edition of Open Doors Day. the The tour will be on Saturday from 9am to 1pm and is freeWith pre-registration through Institution website.
“People will learn how to apply it in their lives, regarding the resistance of some bacteria to antibiotics,” explained Gemina Zuni, a spokeswoman for IBR, who consulted. Rosario3 About what the visiting public will find.
There you will tour the facilities, have an introductory talk about the research projects being implemented, and then participate in an experiment in one of the laboratories.
Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology of Rosario It is one of the first centers to be opened in the Scientific and Technological Center (CCT) of Rosario, more than 20 years ago.. Since 2015, she has been holding these sessions to spread the importance of her research, and this is the fifth time she has opened her doors to the public, where teens, children from 11 years old, families and adults of all ages can attend.
“The proposal is to help them see that we can all do science, together with the scientists, colleagues and technicians at IBR. It is the fifth open day in this space that we have in Conicet Rosario, next to the University City. Zuni said in an interview with: “Many research institutes work there, and our institutes are in biological sciences.” The first in the afternoon (Radio 2).
She added that in addition to the general public, The goal is to awaken advocacy among teenagers: “From the age of 11, people of all ages can participate. We are aiming for that High school students with interests related to biology, biotechnology, and chemistryFind out what’s about to help you at the time of your choosing in the future.
These tours will be conducted in groups, and last one hour. From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., there will be admission every half hour.

The Institute consists of approximately 60 researchers, 100 doctoral and postdoctoral fellows, 30 specialists, technicians, administrators and trainees, and 60 undergraduate students completing their bachelor’s thesis.
Since its establishment as an interdisciplinary institute in biological sciences, several lines of research in evolutionary biology and biotechnology in vertebrates and plants have been conducted at IBR; Molecular, cellular and structural biology of infectious diseases and neurodegeneration; Plant cell and molecular biology; Microbial physiology and genetics.
