At the end of last term, Year 10 student, Zahra D’Souza attended the Christmas Lecture at the Royal Institution. This was a great experience and she was able to witness a ‘behind the scenes’ production of part of the show as well as watch the filming and discuss the actual science behind it with Professor Slawomir and Dr Zoulias from the University of Reading. Zahra has since written an article about her visit for the Young Reporter’s Scheme, which has been tweeted by the Brain Embodiment Lab at the University of Reading and by Professor Slawomir and colleagues . In communications to her, Professor Slawomir congratulated Zahra for a well-written and informative article.
