This was the team’s first outreach event! We set up a stall during British Science Week hosted by Manchester (The City of Science 2016). We taught school children different methods of chemical production and asked them their own views on the matter.

At the AGM, we presented the preliminary research we had done into our project. We aimed to get feedback and to test what the experts thought of our idea and whether our product would gain interest from the public.

The team discussed our project with the Fredsense CEO, David Lloyd. Fredsense is a biosensor company using microorganisms to test water samples. We discussed a range of topics from the public image of biosensors to the applications and implications our Alcopatch could have.
