Abstract

Scientific meetings rarely involve the local community and have minimal educational and scientific impacts on it. Here, we report the successful engagement of high-school students in scientific conferences. To promote science education and trust in science, we call upon conference attendees and organizers to involve high-school students in their meetings.
