Eighth edition of the event enjoyed strong participation by students, teachers, families and researchers<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM) held yet another edition of Ci\u00eancia Aberta, one of the country\u2019s largest scientific dissemination events. With the participation of around 30,000 people and a strong showing by students, teachers, families and researchers, this open house firmly establishes the Center as a leading national and international reference in bringing science and society closer together.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On Friday (29), the day dedicated to students, Ci\u00eancia Aberta welcomed 284 school groups from 10 different Brazilian states and the Federal District, reinforcing the national scope of the event and its strategic role in popularizing science. Tickets for school groups ran out in less than 24 hours during the registration period in March. Even a school in Paraguay participated in this edition.<\/p>\n

Most groups came from the state of S\u00e3o Paulo, with 252 groups traveling to CNPEM, followed by Minas Gerais with 21. The cities with the most registered groups were Campinas (33), S\u00e3o Paulo (24), Hortol\u00e2ndia (12), Paul\u00ednia and Sorocaba (10 each), as well as Sumar\u00e9 (9), Po\u00e7os de Caldas (8) and Piracicaba (7).<\/p>\n

The strong presence of public schools and high school students highlighted growing interest among young people in science, technology and innovation, as thousands of students got a close look at some of the world\u2019s most advanced scientific infrastructures like Sirius and the future Orion complex.<\/p>\n

During the two days of programming, 30,000 people participated in roughly 100 interactive activities. Along with the scientific program, these visitors donated 5.1 tons of food to be directed toward charitable institutions, and received 1,200 plant seedlings.<\/p>\n

This was the first time that visitors needed to obtain tickets in advance, and all were sold out prior to the event.<\/p>\n

\u201cCi\u00eancia Aberta is more than just a celebration of CNPEM\u2019s work. It is a way of recognizing the collective efforts of people who believe that Brazil can go further. Each advance presented to the public carries with it the silent work of generations that believed in knowledge, cooperation and in the future. After all, science is a collective human effort built on persistence, trust and long-term vision, and for this reason it must be valued, disseminated and recognized by all of society. This is how we inspire new talent, strengthen our institutions and proudly reaffirm the role of Brazilian science in constructing a better future,\u201d said CNPEM Director General Antonio Jos\u00e9 Roque da Silva.<\/p>\n

In addition to hands-on activities in the laboratories, the program also included Sede de Ci\u00eancia [\u201cA Thirst for Science\u201d], a space dedicated to debates and conversations between researchers and visitors. The topics included scientific dissemination, artificial intelligence in education, quantum technologies, Amazonian biodiversity, fossils analyzed using the Sirius accelerator, rare earths and the challenges of health innovation in Brazil.<\/p>\n
