CIC nanoGUNE 

In this seminar, we will present nanoGUNEs Outreach activities.

We believe that the role of science and technology in society has never been so important as it is today. This is why we organize and participate in many science outreach activities, events and projects, with the purpose of spreading an egalitarian scientific culture and inspire a critical society.

The presentation will focus on:

1. The relevance of Communication and Dissemination in Research.
2. NanoGUNEs Outreach Agenda and Communication activities.
3. Useful tools to reach the audience.

It would undoubtedly be impossible to meet our commitment without you, the nanoGUNE community!
