Update: What Dean Whittaker did with his prize money…

Part of the fun of science is that plans regularly change and develop as research evolves. Dean’s plans for what he spent his I’m a Scientist winnings on have changed a little, and he has kindly updated us with what he spent the money on:

Bath Taps into Science 2010

My plan changed a little again and I bought a half-decent video camera and all the equipment to go with it – tripod, memory cards, case and 3 years replacement plan – for the people who run Bath Taps in Science festival for £250. This was so they can tape training videos and some funky stuff to put up on TV screens. They appear to be very thankful and will use it to make clips of this year’s event in March.

The other £250 has gone to helping 50 pupils from Harwell Primary School get transport to Rutherford Appleton Laboratory for a visit and talk on astronomy.
