Back at the VG&M! Summer Science Club!
Every year the Victoria Gallery and Museum at the University of Liverpool hosts a Summer Science Club with a session per week for six weeks. Each session is hosted by a different group from the University and four members of CPR volunteered to host a Proteomics session. There were 12 students aged nine to 11 who attended the two hour session, having a go at hands-on activities all centered around DNA, proteins and diagnosing diseases.

Judging at the Big Bang
Continuing on from the success of previous years, All About STEM again hosted the North West heat of the Big Bang competition at the Echo Area. The turnout of students and the quality of projects presented was fantastic, making Victoria Harman’s job as head judge very difficult indeed. The hard work of the students was abundantly clear and some brilliant projects were put forward for the finals.

Winstanley come to visit
Filed in: Winstanley
Four students from Winstanley College visited our laboratories in the Centre for Proteome Research, University of Liverpool. The students had prepared some samples in their college science lessons and during their visit they were shown how to analyse the samples using one of our Mass Spectrometers. The students were given a tour of the lab and an introduction to Proteomics by the group leads, before participating in some hands-on activities.
