On Friday 8th April, the LMGM-CBI welcomed two classes of 4th graders from the colleges Sainte-Marie-des-Ursulines and Saint-Louis (Toulouse). The pupils discovered the various professions of research through a presentation of the LMGM, a stakeholder of the CBI, as well as the personnel which composes it : researchers, teacher-researchers, engineers and technicians, students in master, in thesis…

Then, each student participated in “discovery” workshops: from fluorescence microscopy and image analysis to PCR (polymerase chain reaction), from protein purification to bioinformatics. These moments of exchange were very rich for all the participants.

The students loved the day !!!!
