A few times a year, the IQCC opens its doors and gives the opportunity to high-school students to know our work through exciting lectures and computational and experimental workshops. This provides the secondary school pupils the possibility to get a feel for the research and have real-time chemistry in their hands. Last week, it was the turn for the visit of 12 high-school students from INS Vallvera.
In the first part, the director of Science Culture and Digital Communication (C4D) and IQCC researcher (Sílvia Simon) gave a brief summary of the IQCC institute and two researchers of IQCC (Anna Roglans and Pedro Salvador) explained their research at the IQCC. Afterwards, the pupils attended three workshops (Changes in the colour with pH; Three reactions in one test-tube; Computational simulations) to experience in real life the research in chemistry with the help of some PhD students from IQCC (Ricard López-Coll, Arnau Call, Ouissam El Bakouri and Judit Gálvez).
