Tome and Principe, 100 years of the International Astronomical Union (IAU), 50 years of the first man landing on the moon, 500 years of the circumnavigation voyage of Ferdinand Magellan - so we challenge the R&D Units and their researchers to participate in Science 2019, a meeting that aims to highlight the need to deepen research and innovation and strengthen dialogue and communication about the knowledge developed in the country.

The various challenges of the scientific agenda is another topic under debate at the Meeting with the aim of encouraging interaction between researchers, the business sector and the general public. In addition to the various communications, the event also has a space for demonstrations of R&D activities and the exhibition of digital posters of doctoral students with FCT grants on the ongoing activities and/or recent results of their research.
