Standing up for Science media workshop

Sense About Science in collaboration with the Cambridge Science Festival is organising a free, full day Standing up for Science media workshop at Broad Institute, Cambridge on Tuesday 24th April. The workshop is for early career researchers in all sciences, medicine and engineering (graduate students and post-docs or equivalent in first job). For more information please refer to the event flyer.
The GSO is posting this advertisement for the event but is not involved in the planning or carrying out of this event.

Survey results forthcoming!

We had a short survey to find out how YOU think the GSO is doing/what you think we could be doing better! We will be distributing the results of the survey to the representatives and possibly posting them somewhere on this website soon.
