The 20th edition of European Researchers’ Night, a continent-wide celebration of science and research careers, took place on 26–27 September 2025.
On Friday, our team welcomed visitors to the MATE Campus in Gödöllő for an immersive program titled “The Secret Life of Cells – A Journey Under the Microscope.” Through six interactive stations, guests of all ages explored the hidden world of cell biology with hands-on activities and live demonstrations.
Here’s what they discovered:
🔬 Microscope adventures – Take a close-up look at living cells
🧩 Cell quest – Explore how the human body is built, one cell at a time
💧 A Researcher’s day – Try pipetting like a real scientist
❤️ Mini-heart in the lab – Discover the future of cardiac research
🐷 Science and the pig – Test your knowledge with our fun science quiz
🧬 Healing at the cellular level – Learn how genetic instructions can help treat diseased cells
As part of these activities, several of our ongoing EU-funded research projects – including SynMech, NHPig, MMM, EMAPS, and WhyNotDry – were introduced to the public, highlighting how collaborative science is driving innovation in medicine and biotechnology.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to our dedicated researchers who brought science to life!
We’re proud to be part of this Europe-wide initiative that inspires curiosity, celebrates discovery, and connects science with society. 🌍✨
