The materials comprise posters, PowerPoint presentations, movies, sticker and T-shirt designs, experimental instructions, logistics documents etc. An overview of all documents is provided in the Contents.pdf file. Further explanations about the rationale and strategy of our outreach activities can be taken from our recent article:<br><br>Patel, S., Prokop, A. (2017).
