Wegen is weten!  

Kids tour in BIMS lab during Amolf’s Open Day

Kan je speeksel verraden wat je net hebt gesnoept? Tijdens de Amolf Open Dag nodigde de BIMS groep jonge wetenschappers uit om zelf een labjas aan te trekken en te ontdekken hoe wetenschappers met een bijzondere “weegschaal” onderzoeken welke stoffen in je spuug zitten!

Het lab voor massaspektrometrie verwelkomde jonge wetenschappers (leeftijd 8 – 15 jaar) voor een interactieve lab tour.  Onze bezoekers beleefden “hands-on” met welke methodes op het lab wordt gewerkt en ze mochten zelf een monster onderzoeken. 

De lab tour voor kinderen was een groot succes. Wetenschappers, kleine en grote gasten hebben er erg van genoten!
