Proslava Internacionalnog dana mikroorganizama 2024. u parku Maksimir / Celebrating International Microorganism Day 2024 in Maksimir Park

Internacionalni dan mikroorganizama 2024 proslavili smo u parku Maksimir 21. rujna 2024. Šetali smo s mikrobima kroz sljedećih osam orijentacijskih točaka:

1. Tko pere ruke, s virusima i bakterijama nema muke!
2. Mezofilni i termofilni mikroorganizmi u procesu kompostiranja.
3. Mali znanstvenici otkrivaju tajne mikroalgi.
4. Zoosporidijski paraziti mikroalgi – u suradnji s COST akcijom ParAqua (CA 20125).
5. Gljive svuda oko nas.
6. Oprez – turnir krpelja u pikadu!
7. Ida: super-mikro heroj za spas planeta (od plastike).
8. Pronađi mikrobe u fermentiranoj hrani!

Sponzori Aicore, Biorela i PharmaS osigurali su nagrade za vrijedne šetače koji su s nama ove godine šetali u prirodi i učili o mikrobima. Čak 58 volontera Hrvatskog mikrobiološkog društva (HMD) i Udruge studenata biologije (BIUS), simpatizera i članova njihovih obitelji sudjelovalo je u ostvarenju ovog projekta popularizacije znanosti. Hvala svima!

Je li nam bilo zabavno? Pogledajte ugrađenu videosnimku na kraju posta.

Niste mogli biti s nama ove godine? Ništa strašno. Imamo mi puno ideja za buduće projekte. Pratite Hrvatsko mikrobiološko društvo i saznajte do idućeg rujna što vam spremamo za 2025.

Vidimo se na idućoj proslavi Internacionalnog dana mikroorganizama!

We celebrated International Microorganism Day 2024 in Maksimir Park on September 21, 2024. We walked in the park with microbes through the following eight orientation points:

1. When washing your hands, viruses and bacteria don’t stand a chance!
2. Mesophilic and thermophilic microorganisms in the composting process.
3. Little scientists discover the secrets of microalgae.
4. Zoosporidian parasites of microalgae – in cooperation with the COST Action ParAqua (CA 20125).
5. Mushrooms all around us.
6. Caution – tick tournament in darts!
7. Ida: super-micro hero to save the planet (from plastic).
8. Find microbes in fermented food!

Sponsors Aicore, Biorela and PharmaS provided prizes for those who “walked with microbes” this year. As many as 58 volunteers of the Croatian Microbiological Society (CMS) and Biology Students Association (BIUS), sympathizers and members of their families made this science communication project possible. Thanks everyone!

Was it fun? Check out the embedded video at the end of the post.

Couldn’t be with us this year? No problem. We have plenty of ideas for future projects. Follow the Croatian Microbiological Society and find out by next September what we have in store for you in 2025.

See you at the next celebration of the International Microorganism Day!
