(Adnkronos) - “Siamo qui per raccontare la scienza e la cultura in generale alle persone che non fanno questo di mestiere. Il nostro modo di lavorare spesso è complesso, laborioso, si basa sull'acquisizione di informazioni utilizzando il metodo scientifico, che è qualcosa di molto serio ed è entrato nelle nostre vite di ricercatori ma spesso non è conosciuto da persone che non si occupano di ricerca” così Sveva Corrado, dipartimento di Scienze Università degli Studi Roma Tre, durante la “Notte Europea dei Ricercatori e delle Ricercatrici”, evento che fa parte del progetto #LEAF, acronimo per “heaL thE plAnet's Future”, cura il futuro del pianeta, organizzato da Frascati Scienza e promosso dalla Commissione Europea e dalla Regione Lazio, presso l'Università degli Studi Roma Tre

00:00We are here to tell the science, the culture in general, to society, to people who do not do this job.
00:13Because for one evening, basically, those who do research, both in the scientific field but also in the humanistic field,
00:21want to convey the meaning, first of all, of the passion of the work that is taking place,
00:28because discovering something new is always an extremely exciting adventure.
00:34And so the point is precisely to convey this passion, first of all,
00:39and obviously also the most significant results,
00:42especially in a context that sees us, in these years,
00:47engaged in the first line with problems such as climate change,
00:53for which environmental sustainability is, in a way, the key word of this evening.
01:01We want to explain how our research can really contribute to the realization of a peaceful society,
01:10a society in which there is space and resources for everyone.
01:14And we want to do this by bringing people closer to a way of working that is often complex, laborious.
01:24It is based on the acquisition, in some way, of information using the scientific method,
01:34which is something very serious, which has entered our lives as researchers,
01:39but it is often not known by people who do not do research.
01:45Science can be explained to everyone, absolutely,
01:49because we speak as scientists of generally physico-chemical phenomena
01:55that explain to us many of the realities in which we live every day.
02:00So, for example, I am part of the Department of Science.
02:04We have many stands tonight that deal with science in everyday life.
02:10For example, geology in the kitchen,
02:13so how the materials that we use, let's say, daily for our food
02:22can then also be used to reproduce much larger chain models,
02:30obviously in a laboratory context on a scale.
