COMMUNITY OUTREACH

2024

Futuras Cientistas (Future Female Scientists)   This is a special program that encourages female high school students to engage in science. The training aims to forge female Future Scientists in a way to decrease the gender differences in science. Professors from several universities act as mentors, estimulating young females to take part in scientific projects..

Several schools have engaged with LAMOF in outreach activities this year. We are thankful to everyone who has been helping our lab team in this journey. Our especial thanks goes to the schools that allowed us to expand their students knowleges on Plant Secretory Structures - Escola Estadual de Educação Profissional Juarez Távora, EEMTI Integrada 2 de Maio, EEFM General Murilo Borges and EEM Figueiredo Correia.
