On June 4, 2019, an outreach activity for high school students in Pitrufuquén, co-sponsored by the Scientific and Technological Bioresource Nucleus (BIOREN) in La Frontera University (UFRO) was held. Pitrufuquén is a city about 30 km south from UFRO. The audience of this lecture was approximately 150 high school students of Complejo Educacional Monseñor Guillermo Hartl in Pitrufquén.

During the lecture, Dr. Jacqulienne Acuña acted as a moderator. Dr. Marco Compos, UFRO postdoctoral researcher, presented “The impact of agriculture on our environment”, and Mr. Ignacio Rilling, SATREPS-MACH lab assistant, presented “SATREPS MACH Project” to the students.

            In the “SATREPS MACH Project” lecture, Ignacio explained new technologies such as ”Suitcase lab” we are developing. He emphasized that the outcome of this Japan-Chile joint research project aims to benefit the general public of Chile (including small-scale fishermen, salmon aquaculture, shellfish aquaculture, etc.).
