The Open Science project has been successfully communicated towards the research institutions in the Czech Republic, informing them about the project and the possibilities of engaging talented secondary-school students in their own scientific strategies. About 500 secondary-school students from the entire Czech Republic applied for the project and more than 200 of them were selected by the scientists themselves. Being guided by the excellent scientists, talented students may discover science and inquiry-based activities in the hi-tech laboratories and scientific workplaces.
