Thank you, and commiserations, to all the other scientists. You’ve been brilliant participants and each and every one of you contributed to the success of this year’s event.

Thank you to all the teachers for your enthusiasm and involvement and finally thanks to all the students! Your brilliant chats and thought provoking questions have kept the scientists on their toes, and made this year’s I’m a Scientist, Get me out of Here! one of the most fun, and busiest, events yet.
