We welcomed a fantastic community of new biology teachers to our lab for an engaging and inspiring afternoon!
The teachers explored and shared ideas to make science biology lessons more impactful and exciting for students.
🌱 Because when it comes to teaching science, the learning never stops, and we’re always eager to grow and give back.

We are happy to announce the Annual Biology Teachers Conference 2024 entitled ‘Biologists’ Discourse #17′

We are pleased to share that our research was presented at the BERA 2024 conference in Manchester. Conducted in collaboration with Dr. Wilton Lodge from UCL, the presentation, titled ‘Science Can’t Happen Without Representation’: The Interplay Between Social Justice and the Nature of Science in Natural History Museum Exhibits, explored the intersection of social justice and the nature of science within the context of museum exhibits.

We wrapped up the academic year with a delightful visit to The Clore Garden of Science at the Weizmann Institute. The outdoor museum provided a fun and educational experience, combining hands-on science activities with a wonderful atmosphere. It was a great opportunity to enjoy some time together and explore science in a unique way!
