PhD Student runner up in I'm a Scientist Get Me Out Of Here!

This online X factor-style science communication competition gives school students of all ages the opportunity to be the judges.

During the 2-week event, students from schools across the UK pose questions to scientists online and also participate in fast-paced live chats. Students vote for their favourite scientist and each day of the second week the scientist with the fewest votes is evicted.

The winning scientist was awarded £500 to communicate their work with the public.
