A study, where a remedy against HIV was created
Another notable attraction is without a doubt a virtual tour of the workplace of chemist Antonín Holý. Yes, you will be able to walk through the work place in which a remedy against HIV was created and also explore the equipment of one of the smallest laboratories designated for the examination and measurement of substances by drops and molecules.
The space and the Czech Republic. Will you succumb to the magic of luxury space?
How noticeable is the Czech imprint in scientific missions of the European Space Agency and other space projects? Why do we need to have a “lightning conductor” on Mars and who examines black holes in active galactic nuclei? You will be able to ask these questions and together with leading experts search for answers in a panel discussion at the Science Fair.
Numerous innovations and curiosities from the world of science
The already fourth fair of science and technology is participated upon not only by the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, but also universities, businesses and other scientific institutions. They will all let the visitors to gain an insight into their current research. Some stalls will remind you of improvised laboratories, others will provide special exhibits. The science fair will also bring panel discussions with leading Czech scientists and experts or a ´career day´.
