Soapbox Science
Event details
Come and listen to top female scientists as they take science to the streets of York – standing on a soapbox!
Established in 2011, Soapbox Science promises a summer of excitement, fun and fantastic science with events across the world. Catch the York event and join in the conversation with inspirational speakers from the University of York as they explain their research and promote the visibility of women in science.
Suitable for all interest levels.
Unfortunately one of our scientists, Freja Oesterstroem, is unable to be at St Sampson's Square, so here's her contribution online.
