The 2023 edition of the “1000 researchers in schools” operation will run from 6 November to 8 December.
During this period, speakers from laboratories supported by the AFM-Téléthon (Institut de Myologie, Généthon and I-Stem) will be visiting secondary schools across France to explain and popularise advances in research and the medical and scientific revolution underway, talking to pupils about their careers and their day-to-day lives as researchers, and presenting the range of scientific careers available.
Over the past 10 years, more than 370,000 pupils from 3ème to Terminale, in France and abroad (this operation also takes place throughout the year for French schools abroad), have been able to meet a scientific expert from a laboratory supported by the AFM-Téléthon as part of this operation approved by the French Ministry of Education and organised by the AFM-Téléthon with the support of the Association des Professeurs de Biologie et de Géologie (APBG).
