The Brighton Science Festival is in your window: Brighton Science Festival http://www.brightonscience.com/2011/ The name is wrong. It is really the Sussex science festival, with gigs throughout the counties. I can't recall the subject on offer, but there is almost certainly something suitable. _______________________________ Michael Kenward OBE Have words will travel From: psci-com: on public engagement with science [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Toby Shannon Sent: 10 January 2011 14:48 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [PSCI-COM] Trending science for 2011 Calling all organisers of public science events Do you have an event coming up between now and the end of March 2011? We’re looking for events around controversial or topical science issues (synthetic biology, animal testing, climate change, stem cells, food security etc.) Maybe you are planning such an event during National Science and Engineering Week or part of a festival? Or it may be part of your regular café sci? If you know of such an event (big or small, anywhere nationwide) we’d be incredibly grateful if you could drop me an email (off-list) and let me know! I am trying to work out what the trending topics are for the 1st quarter of 2011. Many thanks, Toby Shannon ________________________________ Take a look at the British Science Association CREST Awards video at: www.britishscienceassociation.org/crestvideo. We’ll also be on hand to talk about CREST and our other educational schemes at next year’s ASE Conference in Reading (Jan 6th-8th). We’ll have competitions and freebies, so come and say ‘Hello’to us on stand CS29.
