Zinātnieku nakts 2025 - ‘Noskaidro, vai tu od pēc dzīvsudraba’
Pasākuma laikā apmeklētājiem bija iespēja iepazīties ar dzīvsudraba analizatoru darbībā, nosakot, vai izelpā ir dzīvsudrabs, kā arī uzzināt vairāk par dzīvsudrabu un nepieciešamību noteikt tā koncentrāciju vidē. Tika prezentēts projekts, iepazīstinot ar tā mērķi un pirmajiem iegūtajiem rezultātiem
