We are pleased to announce details of 'Living the Lab Life', an online conference for sixth form students. This event gives students the chance to hear directly from scientists about their career journeys, have their questions answered, and learn about the research taking place at the Babraham Institute. Students can further engage in the event by submitting a poster based on Institute research, with a prize for the best submission!
The conference takes place on Thursday 26 November, starting at 6pm. It is open to all Year 12 and Year 13 students, though parents and teachers are also welcome to attend. All attendees should register individually, through our booking form.
