Our Explora RM Norte project invites all specialists to want to be advisors to a school research team to enroll until May 20!

We invite the entire scientific-technological community of the country to be part of the initiative "School Scientific Clubs Explore MRI" in the form of online scientific advisors. In this initiative students from 5th grade to 4th grade form teams led by their teachers ,and between the months of June-October formulate and implement a research or innovation project that arises from their own interest and motivations. For this process it is essential to accompany and guide specialists in areas related to their projects.

The students and teachers who are part of the clubs belong to educational establishments of the 17 communes that make up the explora RM Norte community.: Lo Barnechea, Ñuñoa, Providence, Pudahuel, Quilicura, Recoleta, Renca, Santiago, Tiltil, Vitacura, Hill, Conchalí, Huechuraba, Independencia, The Queen, Lampa and Las Condes.
