The children showed a great interest in performing pH measurements with colorful test tubes

For the sixth time, researchers from CECAD have visited a Primary School in Cologne Seeberg-Nord to introduce the fascinating world of science and scientific research in a playful and engaging way.

We believe that "Everyone is a Scientist!" That is why we launched our primary school project. This project was initiated by Prof. Dr. Carien Niessen and developed together with staff and scientists from the CECAD Cluster of Excellence for Aging Research.

As always, the kids were full of joy and showed a big spirit of discovery.

Through this project, CECAD aims to spark interest in and open up opportunities for scientific careers among children who, due to their background, do not typically have direct exposure to science. Read more about our project here
