On June 25, Patricia participated in a Workshop organized by the Native Scientist in Zurich. Native Scientist is a science outreach organization aiming to connect scientists and children across Europe to reduce inequalities, promote quality education, and celebrate diversity. The workshops are done in the mother tongue of the scientist and, the majority of times, the second language of the children born to migrant parents. Patricia had the opportunity to talk about her PhD scientific topic in Portuguese to 10-13 years old kids. It was rewarding to have such a curious and energetic public asking her questions about hearing. Patricia also felt close to home by presenting in her mother tongue!
