<\/figure>\n\n\n\nFor 7th-grade students, the girls conducted a bright and interactive lecture “Hormones \u2013 The Superheroes of Our Body”<\/strong>, where they explained the role of hormones in the body in simple and accessible language. The pupils learned that hormones are like “commanders” of our well-being, energy, growth, emotions, and even friendships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Together with the lecturers, the children discovered superheroes with amazing powers: Growth Hormone \u2013 Captain Growth, Insulin \u2013 Energy Controller, Adrenaline \u2013 Power Lightning, Serotonin \u2013 Calm and Mood, Oxytocin \u2013 the Friendship Hormone, and many others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A highlight of the meeting was a mini-quiz, which not only helped consolidate the material but also brought plenty of fun moments. The pupils actively answered questions, asked their own, and proved that they had absorbed the knowledge excellently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Such initiatives are extremely important, especially for teenagers who often experience hormonal changes and do not always understand what is happening to them. Knowledge presented on a scientific basis yet in an engaging form helps reduce anxiety and foster a healthy attitude toward themselves and their bodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We sincerely thank the administration and teaching staff of Ternopil Classical Lyceum for their warm, sincere welcome and for creating an atmosphere of trust, openness, and curiosity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Educational outreach activities by students of I.

It is thanks to such educational institutions, where respect for science and a desire to cultivate curiosity in children prevail, that initiatives like this become truly lively and meaningful.
We believe that such meetings help to build trust in medicine and motivate young people to take care of their health from an early age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-5-613x460.jpg\")
