Hello everyone!
In these hard times, we are extremely pleased to announce the start of the International Scientific Tournament 2021.

We should start off by saying that it is the first international scientific tournament in Ukraine, which aims to unite students majoring in different life sciences fields to solve interdisciplinary problems and prove themselves to be the future of scientific progress.
The structure of the tournament will be as follows:
🔸Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, all rounds of the tournament will be held online.
🔸To take part in this tournament, you would need to assemble a team of 4-6 students, majoring at least in three fields of life sciences (biology, chemistry, physics, etc.)
🔸Your team would need to solve at least 2 of 3 tasks in the Extramural round, fill out the form forms.gle/RhQPVCRyd4UD1buP7 and send solutions to the following email ist.ukr.organizers@gmail.com😉
🔸 Deadline for the first part: 24.01.2021,23:59, GMT+1
🔸 If your team successfully passes this round, you will be accepted for the Intramural round of the tournament with new problems
🔸 The solutions for the Intramural round of the tournament must be presented orally in front of other teams. Your opponents and the jury might bombard you with tricky questions attempting to refute your solutions. However, you should trust no one and demonstrate your intelligence, strength, and courage to go further to the final part of the tournament.
🔸 The final round would be pretty much the same except for the teams, they would be the strongest ones. So if you didn't make this part, you would still be almost the smartest students around the world and can be proud of yourself.

The organizer team wishes you good luck and may the cup of the IST be with you this year 😉
