UniStem Day 2024: the event dedicated to high school students all over Europe returns for its 16th edition

UniStem day is aimed at engaging tens of thousands of European High School students in order to inform them about the practice, the technological advancements and the results in the field of regenerative medicine, create synergy between education and research and promote the concept of a united European scholarship related to the practice of scientific research. Also in 2024, the core of the program will be a one day European-wide event to be held simultaneously on Friday March 22. NSC-Reconstruct and its partners are once again promoting scientific communication and outreach directed at young audiences


UniStem Day is an event solely dedicated to the dissemination and outreach of stem cell science and provides an opportunity to foster learning, discovery and debate on the themes of knowledge and innovation starting from stem cell research. The event showcases cutting edge research, paints a picture of the daily work of a scientist, and explores the mechanisms behind scientific breakthroughs, including the cultural expectations. By offering lessons, debates, visits at the laboratories and recreational moments, the students engage with the concepts and methodologies involved in stem cell research. Furthermore, they will gain an appreciation for science and how it can be fun and build personal character and relationships based on evidence, perseverance and integrity.

Since 2009 UniStem Day brings together Universities and High Schools from all over the world. In 2024, UniStem Day will be held in 97 universities and research centres in Australia, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Serbia, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
