R.E.A.L. Science appeared on ERT’s First Program for the second time, invited by Periklis Vasilopoulos! On 12 October 2020, we were guests on his nationwide and internationally broadcast show “Athens Calling” on ERT’s First Program.
Dr. Eleni Sinopoulou, founder of R.E.A.L. Science, spoke about our initiative, our collaboration with the “Bridges of Knowledge and Cooperation” program, and the Real Skills for Scientists webinar series.
Eleni and Dimitris Maragos, coordinator of the Bridges initiative, highlighted the strong impact of the seminars, noting that many people immediately reached out to connect through social media and expand their networks.
Eleni’s message was clear:
“We can help young people understand that they have employment options—so they won’t need to leave Greece. In this way, we contribute to reversing the brain drain.”
We arranged to reconnect with Mr. Vasilopoulos soon to share the progress we make.

Our heartfelt thanks to our volunteer Nancy Megremi for preparing and sharing this post.
