Annual Scientific Report 2017

In 2017 we launched the ICIQ Virtual Lab, an online platform providing open access to educational materials to better understand chemistry. The Virtual Lab presents experiments and information specially designed for the educational community as well as showcasing the ICIQ researchers and the institute’s main fields of research (http://labvirtual.iciq.es/es/).

ICIQ’s outreach strategy is focused on raising public awareness of chemical research as a key factor in the progress of society and of its benefits in terms of health, energy and environmental sustainability. In this sense, the main concern is to contribute to improving chemical learning and, in doing so, encouraging young people to pursue a career in chemistry research.
