Eiturefni í umhverfi okkar og erfðabreytt matvæli
Þriðjudaginn 17. febrúar og miðvikudaginn 18. febrúar mun Irena Kurajić flytja þrjá fyrirlestra í húsakynnum Háskólaseturs Vestfjarða. Efni þeirra eru eiturefni í umhverfi (dæmi tekið af kopar) og kenningar um skaðsemi erfðabreyttra matvæla. Irene er þaulreyndur kennari á framhaldsskólastigi í Slóveníu. Við hvetjum því nemendur í efnafræðiáföngum í MÍ sérstaklega til að mæta, og að sjálfsögðu alla þá sem láta sig umhverfismengun varða.
Á mánudeginum kl. 12:00-13:30
Á þriðjudeginum kl. 12:00-13:15
Báða dagana verða umræður í lokin.
Fyrirlestrarnir verða á ensku. Allir velkomnir.
