- On the first day we firstly went to the IGC, Instituto Gulbenkian para a Ciência, where we were presented with the work of the scientists there, who briefly talked to us about subjects like the cytoskeleton, antibiotics and their influence on several species and even evolution. In the research center they study several subjects that vary and go from cell biology, through genetics of complex diseases and theoretical and computacional biology.
And to really finish in style, and indeed it was quite an ending, we all went to see a play in Teatro da Trindade, 'Os Maias', about the same book, all dressed up for the occasion...
- On the second day, early in the morning, we went to see an ammonia factory in Lisbon, AP (Amoníaco de Portugal). There we were presented with a guided tour through the entire compound, made of several different factories that build different substances. Unfortunately, the factories are faced with the influences of time.
- On the last day, the 3rd one, in the morning we went to a photovoltaic powerplant located in Serpa, the largest in the world. It is a very peculiar place with lot's to learn about.
All in all, it was a very good journey, very interesting and filled with teaching material. Of course it was fun, after all, it was planned with love and mutual interest. I would like to thank all of the teachers involved, that provided us with gratuitous amounts of fun and times to remember.
