Inauguration of the educational and outreach centre  DUROCERN (Discover the Universe with Romania at CERN) at the Institute  of Atomic Physics (IFA) headquarters. Centre DUROCERN emerged from the  project “Discover the Universe with Romania at CERN” funded during  2023-2024 by the Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitalization  through the CERN-RO Programme managed by IFA. The aim of the centre is  to offer a glimpse behind the scenes of the main facilities at CERN in  order to stimulate the enthusiasm and interest in science for both  students and the general public. It will also present the main  contributions of the Romanian teams at CERN experiments (ALICE, ATLAS,  LHCb, ISOLDE, n_TOF, NA62, NA65, NP02, RD50), through explanatory  posters, samples of detectors and associated electronics, interactive  functional tracking devices, movies, details on the accelerators,  detectors and electronics principles. The centre will also offer remote access to different laboratories and to CERN main experiments or similar  exhibitions, and, last but not least, it will unveil at an informational  and educational level, the physics phenomena under investigation.  DUROCERN is addressed to all categories of visitors, from pupils,  high-school students and teachers, science policy makers, and general  public.
