The 30th Thuringian regional competition "Jugend forscht" took place on March 25 and 26, 2021. 

To make the competition and award ceremony accessible to the public despite Covid-19, a digital solution was chosen. With the help of our event platform rooomEXPO-X, the competition was structured, organized and made freely accessible to interested parties in a digital exhibition. 

The young researchers had the opportunity to present their projects at virtual booths. Posters, videos and avatars with virtual business cards created an interactive presentation of the research projects. The award ceremony was streamed live.

The exhibition can be visited online at https://jugendforscht-thueringen.on.expo-x.com/ until April 23.

In addition to the Thuringian Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports, MDR, JenaTV, Jungforscher Thüringen and Jenoptik report on the success of "Jugend forscht" in Thuringia as well.
