More than one hundred and fifty high school students from the province of Castellón and from the Degree in Medicine at the Universitat Jaume I have participated in the closing ceremony of the second edition of the MicroMón UJI project, a citizen science project that seeks to raise public awareness about the problem of pathogenic bacteria multiresistant to antibiotics and the research of new antibiotic-producing microorganisms.

MicroMón UJI is a project integrated within and coordinated by the SWI@Spain-MicroMundo network, supported by the Teaching and Dissemination Group of the Spanish Microbiology Society (SEM) and the Spanish Agency of Medicines and Healthcare Products (AEMPS) (National Antibiotic Resistance Plan). The SWI@Spain-MicroMundo network is the Spanish branch of the international projects Small World Initiative and Tiny Earth.

Its goal is to bring scientific culture on antibiotic resistance, the One Health perspective and biomedical research in general closer to young pre-university students in order to encourage them to pursue STEM studies and conduct R&D. Hence, a crowdsourcing strategy is implemented to discover new antibiotics.

The initiative has the support of the office of the vice-rectors for Innovation, Transfer and Science Outreach and for Students and Healthy Living of the Universitat Jaume I, of the town councils of Vila-real and Castelló de la Plana, and of the Castelló Provincial Government, as well as the commitment of the five participating schools.
