The role of crystals in human life

The role of crystals in human life was a competition launched during the International Year of Crystallography for secondary-school and university students in Poland. It was organised to increase public awareness of:

  • the presence of crystals in everyday life
  • the way in which crystallography underlies most technological developments in our modern society.

Participants in the competition were asked to prepare a poster, a presentation or a video clip on the role of crystals in human life.

This entry was awarded the third prize in the High School category and was contributed by Aleksandra Dziula of Technikum Chemiczne in Krakow.
