Event Details
El Biosanitary Research Institute of Granada presents a new program of activities, workshops and guided tours to celebrate the Science Week in Andalusia with visitors of all ages between November 4 and 17.
El ibs.GRANADA participate this year with:
Activities
MICROBIOTA AND PLASTICS: DISCOVER THEIR INFLUENCE ON YOUR HEALTH
We will explore how not all microorganisms are bad, the benefits of good microorganisms for human health, their influence on our well-being, and how plastics can negatively affect our gut microbiota and, consequently, our health. In addition, we will learn the different techniques for analyzing gut microbiota and perform an experiment to observe the diversity of skin microbiota.
Participants: Students of the CFGM of Laboratory Operations of the CES Ramón y Cajal
STRATEGIES TO AVOID BACK PAIN
Informative talk on the impact of lower back pain in the general population and its management through active strategies. This will be followed by a practical workshop that will include activities such as correcting postural hygiene, performing specific exercises and presenting recommendations to improve mobility. Finally, participants will be able to explore their movement capacity through recreational activities, encouraging a dynamic and participatory approach.
Date: Tuesday, November 5
Time: 10: 00 h
Location: Ancha de Capuchinos Gerontological Center
Participates: Users of the Ancha de Capuchinos Gerontological Center
DISCOVERING AN INVISIBLE WORLD: BACTERIA, HAND CLEANLINESS AND THE POWER OF ANTIBIOTICS
A two-day workshop will be held at the Homo Sapiens Association to show participants the fascinating microscopic world of bacteria. Homo Sapiens is a non-profit association, founded in 2008, dedicated to the design, planning, implementation and evaluation of inclusive programs, with the main objective of improving the quality of life of people with functional diversity.
The first day will begin with a short presentation of approximately 20 minutes on the importance of microorganisms to society, covering everything from their industrial use to their relevance in the health field. We will then provide culture media for students to grow with their own hands, demonstrating the importance of handwashing (or cleaning surfaces) in removing bacteria. These cultures will be incubated, and the next day we will return with the plates to observe the growth of microorganisms.
In addition, on the second day we will bring antibiograms to explain the importance of antibiotics, and preparations of microorganisms so that participants can observe them under a microscope. If the association's management agrees, we will show in a workshop some of the methods we follow in the laboratory to identify new antibiotics.
Dates: Wednesday, November 6th and Thursday, November 7th
Participants: Users of the Homo Sapiens Association
SCIENCE'S SUPER TEAMS: TEAMS THAT MAKE MAGIC IN THE LABORATORY
We are going to talk about the equipment/machines that we use to do research in the laboratories. The activity to be carried out consists of an “interactive competition” between groups of children/young people using mobile phones, with an explanation/discussion of the contents. There will be a winner, which will motivate participation.
Participants: 4th year ESO students from the Juan XXIII School in Cartuja
RED CABBAGE: A NATURAL PH INDICATOR
In this workshop we will explore how a simple food, red cabbage, can be turned into a fascinating scientific tool to measure the pH of different substances. Red cabbage contains natural pigments called anthocyanins, which change color depending on the acidity or alkalinity level of the solutions they come into contact with. During this activity, we will learn concepts about pH and anthocyanins and experience the pH-indicating property of red cabbage with different acidic and basic solutions.
Date: Thursday, November 7
Schedule: In 3 shifts: 9:15 a.m., 10:15 a.m. and 11:15 a.m.
Location:Biomedical Research Center.
Speakers: José Ángel Rufián Henares. Researcher of the group E07-RESEARCH IN ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND CHILDREN from the ibs.GRANADA, Adriana Delgado Osorio, Angela Toledano Marin and Miguel Navarro Moreno.
Participants: Students from Caja Granada School, 3rd year of ESO
DETECTIVE MATHEMATICS! DISCOVERING THE MYSTERIES OF DISEASES BY INTERROGING THE NUMBERS
In this talk, we will explore how statistical data analysis techniques are essential to identify the factors that cause diseases, thus helping to develop new treatments or preventive measures to combat them. You will see how mathematics becomes tools to understand and improve the health of the population, bringing the abstract world of numbers closer to real life.
Participants: 5th and 6th grade students from CEIP Los Cármenes
FROM THE LABORATORY TO MEDICINE: EXPERIMENTAL METHODS IN THE SEARCH FOR NEW CARDIOVASCULAR DRUGS
This workshop will show you why cardiovascular diseases are so important and why we need to discover new drugs to prevent and treat them. During the activity, you will learn how blood pressure is measured with a practical demonstration, understanding the methods that scientists use in their research. In addition, we will explore how blood vessels respond to different stimuli in vascular reactivity studies. You will participate in simulations where you will be able to see how researchers test new treatments! These tests are essential to develop safe and effective drugs, which can improve the lives of millions of people with heart problems. By the end, you will have a clear idea of how scientific research is helping to combat cardiovascular diseases and how you could be part of the future of health as a researcher.
Date: Monday, November 11
Time: 09: 00 h
Location: Computer Room. Faculty of Pharmacy. University of Granada.
NEW ADVANCED THERAPY MEDICINES DEVELOPED BY TISSUE ENGINEERING
