During the Science Week, ICIQ has carried out several activities with the aim to bring Chemistry closer to society. From 16th to 20th November, several secondary schools were invited to visit ICIQ facilities, so that students could learn how a research project is carried out and witness the way scientists do research in a cutting-edge research institute. On the other hand, from 18th to 20th November, the ICIQ had a booth at the Fira de Mostres d’R+D de Tarragona, celebrated at Campus Catalunya. The assistants could get information about the research activities developed at the center, as well as see and perform curious chemical experiments.

Moreover, on Thursday 19th around 100 people could experience and understand the daily chemistry in a fun way, taking part in the workshop “Chemistry for Families”.

This workshop was carried out as well on Saturday 21st evening at Caixaforum (Tarragona), where more than fifty people attended.
