\t\t\t“Research Live”<\/a> presents the investigation projects currently performed in several centres and R+D institutes in Barcelona. The research activities are disseminated by researchers themselves with the aim to show the scientific knowledge that rarely reaches the public and that corresponds to the controversial stages during which knowledge is still being consolidated and about which the scientific community does not show consensus. The fair therefore provides an opportunity to talk to scientists and to gain first hand experience of the apparatus used to conduct their research.<\/p>\n

This year’s fair presents several projects from diverse fields of knowledge, such as chemistry, biology, ecology, astronomy, medicine, technologies and informatics. Specifically, the general public will be informed of how the study of ants can contribute to determining forest conditions; how to measure the toxicity of contaminants in a river; second generation Internet; the internal structure of galaxies; the fight against malaria; the genetic bases of feelings such as hunger; the fruit fly as a model for the study of diseases such as Alzheimer’s; the automatic development of a virtual character for television programmes, and the support provided by new technologies to drug development.<\/p>\n

“Research Live”<\/a>under the auspices of the Catalan Society of Biology, the Caixa Catalunya, the Ministry of Education and Science and the Dept. of Universities, Research and the Information Society of the Generalitat de Catalunya<\/i>( Government of Catalonia), is targeted at the general public and is free of charge. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
