In 2024, the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation<\/strong> recognised IDIS for its outstanding work in science communication by accrediting it as a member of the Network of Scientific Culture and Innovation Units (UCC+i Network)<\/strong> of the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT)<\/strong>. This public institution promotes interaction between science and society, the development of scientific culture, and the dissemination of scientific knowledge throughout Spain.<\/p>\n The IDIS Scientific Culture and Innovation Unit aims to increase the visibility of the institute and the high-quality research carried out every day by its professionals. It seeks to ensure that health research outcomes achieved for the benefit of society are widely known and understood. The Unit also works to inspire scientific vocations among young people, promote critical thinking, and provide society with opportunities to improve its understanding and appreciation of science.<\/p>\n Its main areas of activity include:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb title=”Outreach Survey” url_new_window=”on” image=”https:\/\/www.idisantiago.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/671802.png” icon_placement=”left” disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”|600||on|||||” header_text_align=”left” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_font_size=”17px” body_font=”|300|||||||” body_text_align=”left” background_color=”#0DA0C5″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” animation_style=”fade” link_option_url=”https:\/\/www.idisantiago.es\/encuesta-necesiades-de-formacion-en-divulgacion\/” link_option_url_new_window=”on” hover_enabled=”0″ custom_css_before=”||” custom_css_main_element=”border-radius: 8px;||background: #1a3b6d;||padding: 20px;||color: #ffffff !important;||cursor: pointer;||box-shadow: 0 4px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.1);||display: flex;||align-items: center;||||font-size: 16px;||transition: all 0.3s ease;||width: 100%;||max-width: 380px;||text-align: left;|||||| ||||||” custom_css_after=”background: #1ab6d;” custom_css_blurb_image=”width: 85px;||height: auto;||margin-right: 15px;||” box_shadow_style=”preset4″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Complete this survey to share your opinion on the outreach and science communication needs of IDIS.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Contacto” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_color=”#10294c” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”6px||0px|6px|false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|300|||||||” custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Iria Louzao Pernas (Head of the UCC+i)<\/strong> Miriam Cebey L\u00f3pez<\/strong> Jos\u00e9 Ram\u00f3n Castro Ruibal<\/strong> Mar\u00eda Rodr\u00edguez Carl\u00edn<\/strong> Contact us at: divulgacion@idisantiago.es<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/div>\n [\/et_pb_code][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.idisantiago.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/LOGOUCCI.jpg” title_text=”LOGOUCC+I” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|auto|0px|auto|false|false” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”1.5px” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_tabs active_tab_background_color=”#10294c” inactive_tab_background_color=”#8F8F8F” active_tab_text_color=”#FFFFFF” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” tab_text_color=”#FFFFFF” tab_font_size=”20px” custom_margin=”-20px||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ custom_css_main_element=”||” custom_css_tabs_controls=”||||” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_tab title=”Visitas ” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” body_font=”|300|||||||” tab_font=”||||||||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n IDIS opens its doors to educational institutions with the aim of showcasing our research activities and promoting scientific culture among students. Pupils from Primary Education, Secondary Education, Baccalaureate, and Vocational Education and Training are welcome to take part in visits tailored to their interests and educational level.<\/p>\n Visits last approximately 2 to 3 hours<\/strong> and begin with a 30-minute introductory presentation<\/strong> explaining what IDIS is, how we work, our main research areas, and the different professional profiles that make up our multidisciplinary team.<\/p>\n Students then take part in interactive workshop<\/strong>s led by our researchers, lasting approximately 1 to 1.5 hours<\/strong>. During these sessions, participants have the opportunity to experience laboratory work first-hand, explore state-of-the-art scientific equipment, and engage directly with our research staff. Activities are designed to be practical, interactive, and engaging, allowing students to experience science in a meaningful way.<\/p>\n\n
