The My Science Programme`s closing conference took place on 28th May 2010 in Bolzano, Italy.
90 young journalists tested their talents
Talented young journalist who wanted to take part in building our future! People curious and enthusiastic about innovations and science! They wanted to know more about renewable energies, genetics, ICT and were interested in other research fields! They had direct access to the sources of information, learnt more about these topics and what is more, were able to prepare own scientific media works – in a way that everybody understands and enjoys it. How?
90 young journalists spent one week in a European research laboratory, where they met the researchers, sew interesting scientific experiences and understand what science is about. They forgot about boring classrooms! Here they had to be actively involved. And most importantly, they learnt how to communicate science and research in an interesting and fun way.
