Each year, the Royal Society welcome thousands of visitors through their doors and reach many more through national coverage on TV or in the media. This is a fantastic opportunity to raise the profile of UK research and gain valuable experience communicating with diverse audience groups.
“I would highly recommend taking part in Summer Science, for the exposure it has given our research, and for the fantastic experience of connecting with visitors and getting direct feedback.” Exhibitor, 2019
