An Introduction to Mysteries.”
Touching on the themes of the 23rd International Exhibition, Unknown Unknowns.

Bracco Foundation is taking part in the global digital project A Brief History of Vaccination, promoted by Google Art and Culture for World Immunization Week 2022 (24 – 30 April 2022), which aims to build awareness of the role of vaccines in combatting potentially deadly diseases, of the importance of science and of the contribution of communities in overcoming pandemics.
Giving vulnerable communities access to science. This is the objective of the STEM project “Italia brilla – Costellazione 2022”, a countrywide itinerant science project touring places that science rarely reaches. Promoted by Associazione Il Cielo Itinerante, the project is enjoying its second year of support from the Bracco Foundation.
