FAMELAB PROVES SCIENCE HAS GOT TALENT
The search is on for the new voices of science communication. The regional heats of
FameLab UK, the UK’s biggest competition for new talent to engage the public in
science, will start in October 2011.
If you’re currently working in or studying science in the UK, and think you can explain
a science, engineering or maths concept in an engaging way to non-scientists in just
three minutes, we want to hear from you!
Aspiring contestants should go along to one of the heats where their efforts will be
judged by a panel of science communication experts.
Heats are taking place in:
Newcastle, Centre for Life on 8 October 2011
Oxford, Science Oxford on 20 and 25 October (final on 17 November)
Cardiff, Chapter Arts Centre on 12 November 2011
Glasgow, Glasgow Science Centre on 19 November 2011
London, Kings College London on 23 and 30 November 2011 (final on 30 November)
Manchester, Museum of Science and Industry on 3 December 2011
Contestants who can’t attend one of the regional heats will also be able to submit
their entries online.
