SSW 2020 Event | COVID-19 Update – Lincoln Summer Scientist

Dear Summer Scientists,

The Summer Scientist Week is a celebratory experience that aims to show children that science can be fun and to inspire the next generation of scientists.

Unfortunately, for the first time in 10 years, we have taken the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Summer Scientist Week due to concerns around the Covid-19 pandemic. We hope you understand that this is not a decision we have taken lightly, but the safety of our visitors and everyone involved in making the event happen is our most important consideration.

Currently, we are exploring the possibility of delivering virtual Scientist events sometime in the future. We will keep you informed with our progress, so keep an eye for updates!

We wish you all a happy summer!

Best wishes!
The Summer Scientist Team

About Lincoln Summer Scientist Week

Every summer the School of Psychology at the University of Lincoln holds a Summer Scientist week. We invite children (and their parents) from all over Lincolnshire to join us for a morning or afternoon of free fun games and exciting research studies! Children from 3 to 11 years old and their parents take part in a variety of research studies which are designed to be fun games run by academic university staff. In between these research games, children are entertained by a host of other fun activities led by a team of trained psychology students. Come and join us for science and fun!
