MIA Lyceum

A biology quest for high school students from Dnipro and the region was held at the smart shelter Clust Space Dnipro, initiated by Oles Honchar Dnipro National University.

Participants included students from the Dnipro Security-Oriented and National-Patriotic Education Lyceum named after O. Hostishchev, under the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The intellectual competition games between teams were organized by faculty and the student council of DNU’s Biology and Ecology Faculty, along with experts from the regional branch of the Junior Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The quest aimed to present biology as a comprehensive natural science and teach participants to apply knowledge practically. Teams navigated five scientific stations, completing tasks in biology, chemistry, and medicine. Lyceum students had the opportunity to work with microscopes, identify chemical elements in food products, and match hormones to the glands that produce them. Winners and prize recipients were determined based on points earned and the speed of completing the station challenges.

In the final standings, the team from the Dnipro Security-Oriented and National-Patriotic Education Lyceum named after O. Hostishchev secured third place. Participants were offered continued support and collaboration for writing scientific papers and projects in biology.
