Bringing young people closer to the world of research, science, innovation and business culture. With these challenges in mind, TLS has been organising activities and events dedicated to communicating science to high school and university students. To promote science culture and entrepreneurship, TLS has organized its own projects (Pop Science; Scienziati per un giorno, Scienza+Arte, Science For Life), and has been participating, together with other institutions and public and private partners, to the main Italian dissemination events (Bright Night; European Biotech Week; Career Week and meetings with high schools).
ACTIVITIES
POP SCIENCE
Pop Science is the first podcast dedicated to TLS’ research activities told through the voices of its researchers and of the high school students of Siena.
You can listen to the 5-episode podcast on Spotify and Amazon Music
SCIENZA+ARTE
Scienza+Arte is a dissemination project carried out by Fondazione TLS, the art school “Duccio di Buoninsegna” and Federchimica Assobiotec, with the sponsorship of University of Siena, Tuscany Region and Comune di Siena. The project was born with the aim of telling the story of science through the art of comics.
