I’m a Scientist is an online activity where school students connect with real scientists about real science. It’s an X Factor-style competition between scientists, where students are the judges.
Students challenge the scientists over fast-paced online text-based live CHATs. They ASK the scientists anything they want, and VOTE for their favourite scientist to win a prize of £500 to communicate their work with the public.
The June Event is now live: 10th – 21st June
Applications are open year round – The next activity is happening in November 2019.
