| 2023/09/29 - 2023/09/29 | I engage in science communication and outreach activities to bridge the gap between researchers and the public. As a member
of the FF2F project team, I participated in the European Researchers’ Night, an initiative funded by the European Commission
under the Horizon 2020 program (Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions). This event aims to foster interaction between researchers
and citizens, highlighting the importance of science in everyday life. During this event, I used project promotional materials,
including posters, videos, images, and prototypes.
