11th MARCH 2016 EUROPE UNITED BY SCIENCE

WHAT IS UNISTEM DAY?
Since 2009, UNISTEM DAY is a one-day meeting organized for high school
students.
This event solely dedicated to the dissemination and outreach of stem cell
science and research provides an opportunity to foster learning, discovery
and debate by involving students and teachers in a variety of activities. 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. They will gain an
appreciation for science in that it can be fun and it builds personal character
based on evidence, perseverance and integrity.
As with previous years, UNISTEM DAY 2016 will bring together Universities
and High Schools from all over Europe by involving 73 European Universities
in Denmark, Germany, Italy, Poland, Serbia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom.
UniStem is the Centre for Stem Cell Research of the University of Milan
founded in 2006 by Profs. E. Cattaneo, G. Cossu, F. Gandolfi and Y. Torrente
(unistem.it).
The UNISTEM DAY 2016 event is one of many UniStem activities on stem cell
research divulgation and this is the 8th annual day dedicated to secondary
school students, being the largest public event on stem cell research in
Europe.
