The winners of remote olympiads in Chemistry and Biology among schoolchildren were determined at Yanka Kupala State University

More than 500 schoolchildren from different regions of Belarus took part in the olympiads.

Remote olympiads in Chemistry and Biology among students in grades 9-11 were held at the faculty of biology and ecology from October 26 to November 5. They were held with the aim of developing students' interest in biological and chemical knowledge, scientific activities, increasing their creative activity, as well as creating the necessary conditions for professional orientation and continuing education of talented and gifted young people at the University. Each olympiad was held in three stages and included closed test tasks of varying complexity – the website http:/school.grsu.by was used for this purpose. At the first stage of the remote biology olympiad, students completed tasks in Botany and Zoology, at the second stage – in Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry, and at the third stage – in the Theory of Evolution and Ecology. The remote Chemistry olympiad included tasks in General, Inorganic, and Organic Chemistry. The winners of each olympiad were the students who scored the maximum number of points based on the results of three stages. All participants of the olympiads will also receive an invitation to the open days of the Faculty of Biology and Ecology of Kupala University, where children will be able to get acquainted with educational laboratories and attend entertaining master classes "Chemical assessment of natural environments" "Microorganisms around us", "Green consumption".
