Achoo! - Juniordoktor 2012/2013

Science presentations for kids

Interested in getting a Junior PhD? It's easy: You will have to visit a number of Dresden research institutions in the natural sciences, medicine, or art field and collect stamps for all stations in your junior PhD pass. Of course, the MPI-CBG supports this project and is one of these stations, offering the presentations listed below.

After that, you will have to give correct answers to a number of questions on the research you looked deeper into. If you meet all these requirements, you will get your Junior PhD, together with a certificate and even a doctoral cap!

Who can join? - Students attending grade 3-12
