UniStem Day 2023

Inspiring the younger generation’s curiosity and interest in science!

UniStem Day is the largest educational outreach initiative on stem cells and regenerative medicine in Europe. Bringing together Universities and high school students, UniStem Day is an opportunity to foster learning, discovery and debate in the field of stem cell research - inspiring the scientists of tomorrow.

This year Lund Stem Cell Center will once again host UniStem Day, with high school students from all over Skåne. Over the course of the day, researchers from the Center will showcase their cutting edge research, provide insights into their daily work, and explain the mechanisms behind scientific breakthroughs by offering lessons, group discussions, practical workshops, and laboratory visits. 

The UniStem 2023 events, to be held on Friday, 10 March, 2023, will focus on promoting a more mature and aware vision of the importance of knowledge and innovation for oneself and for others.
