The Universitat Jaume I (UJI) has convened the second Research Pitches contest for the dissemination of science to promote researchers’ involvement in bringing science closer to society. The objective of these awards, which are endowed with 3,000 euros and sponsored by Banco Santander, is to encourage and value the communicative skills of scientists. The deadline for the submission of audiovisual works is 24 April.

The Research Pitches contest is promoted by the vice-rectorates for Research and Doctorate and Internationalization, Cooperation and Multilingualism and supported by the Communication and Publications Service, through the Scientific Culture and Innovation Unit (UCC+I), founded by the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT) from the Spanish Ministry of  Economy, Industry and Competitiveness. The contest poses to the UJI scientific community the challenge of explaining their research projects through a monologue recorded in a three-minute video in a simple language and close to the non-specialized public. This initiative "is part of the policy of promoting scientific dissemination at the UJI, as well as promoting research groups from our university, in order to reward scientists who can communicate with greater communicative efficiency their lines of work to society,” explains the vice-rector for Research and Doctorate, Jesus Lancis.

The first call for the research pitches contest in 2016 obtained the participation of 32 works, coming from all the branches of knowledge taught at the UJI. Inmaculada Fortanet, vice-rector for Internationalization, Cooperation and Multilingualism, assured that the results were "very satisfactory, both for the number of videos presented and for the quality of the works, which show the richness, diversity and excellence of science developed at our university.”

At the same time, the authors of the winner research pitches may be chosen to represent the Universitat Jaume I in the First International Research Pitches Contest organized by the Compostela Group of Universities, to be held this year.
