Summer Scientists 2012 previewed in the Lincolnshire Echo

This year’s Summer Scientist event is previewed in today’s Lincolnshire Echo! Look out for it on page 36 in the Education Section or read it here online. In addition to the studies described in the article we will have more exciting games which record where you look when you play search games like Where is Wally, a special game which you play by moving the computer mouse just by moving your eyes, a machine that makes your hands look funny (you have to see it to believe it!), fun story games, farm animals, face pulling competitions, sticker sharing, reaching games and much, much more.

In the FunZone we have some of the favourite games from last year and more exciting games added!

Book your place now by clicking here! We look forward to seeing you!

Getting ready for Summer Scientists 2012

Preparations for the Summer Scientists 2012 event are gathering speed. We now have selected the undergraduate volunteers who will help run the event. If you have been to Summer Scientist week before you’ll know that  our “orange helpers” (named after the official volunteers t-shirt) keep the whole event moving. From helping everyone get registered and settled in, playing games, painting faces, helping academics with the research studies and, most importantly, making sure that every single person at the event is having fun!

Last year’s orange helpers received fantastic feedback from our Summer Scientists and their parents. And we are sure that this year will be no different.

Welcome aboard all successful applicants!
