Objective
"The concept of Researchers' Night 2012 is based on the performance of scientists as ordinary people who are in essence no different from the general public. The goal is to bring together the public at large and researchers to improve the image of researchers and to strengthen the public recognition in the scientific work in a funny way. The next goal is to stimulate young people's interest in scientific careers through this event. This year's motto is ""Science does not age."" It reflects the organizers' efforts to alert the public to the permanent value of scientific knowledge. Scientific research is universal and timeless. A massive amount of new information of many kinds appears every day but may quickly become outdated. On the other hand, factual approved findings which scientists have invented across the generations push the boundaries of our understanding of the world into new dimensions. During the Night, the public at large from all regions of the Czech Republic will have the opportunity to explore the scientific work, have fun and share their leisure time with the scientists. Anyone regardless of age and scientific skills will be able to participate in experiments, watch demonstrations, take part in competitions or just enjoy having fun with researchers. The role of the European Commission in supporting this particular event will be described and the EC will be presented as an institution that continuously and largely supports research Europe-wide."
