Granada is once again joining European Researchers' Night, an initiative promoted by the European Commission through the Horizon Europe program, which has been held simultaneously in 400 cities across the continent for the past 14 years. The Mind, Brain and Behavior Research Center (CIMCYC) will participate in this event to bring science closer to the public and show the human side of research.
This year, the CIMCYC will offer free activities at two stands on the Paseo del Salón to showcase the work of its researchers in the field of psychology in an accessible way through talks and interactive workshops. The goal is to show how research helps improve everyday life, fosters innovation and generates social benefits.
In the morning, schoolchildren will enjoy educational activities. In the afternoon, there will be events open to the general public, with some activities explicitly aimed at parents, caregivers or children.
