Outreach ProgrammeThe Outreach Programme developed by CNC, and coordinated by the investigador Teresa Girão da Cruz, offers opportunities to develop partnerships with schools and to extend our scientific resources to the community. The programme is designed to engage students in their science studies and potential careers related to the life sciences, and to broaden the public’s acces to science. The dissemination of scientific information equally contributes to the appreciation of the research activity performed at the CNC. The creation of a Science Communication Office by the CNC is the outcome of the successful outreach programme developed in the past years and the recognition of the importance of an appropriate communication strategy. 125
