Popularisation of Science

At the HiLASE Centre, we strive not only to make science more attractive to the general public, but also to inspire talented young people to get more involved in science and research. That is why we organize a series of events for primary, secondary school and university students, as well as for the public.

We regularly organise a number of open days for the general public, on occasions such as the Researchers Night, the Week of the Academy of Sciences, or the International Day of Light. During these, you can take a look behind the scenes, attend entertaining lectures or visit one of our experimental halls.

Among other things, we also organise two competitions for talented high school students, Talent Academy and Science Challenge, in cooperation with the ELI Beamlines Facility. However, we also try to get even the youngest researchers excited about science, for example through excursions for schools. You can find out more about what we can offer students and graduates HERE.

Last but not least, we also run an educational website Czechlasers.cz, where you can learn many interesting things about lasers and optics.
