NESTA FameLab 2009 Competition Now Open!
NESTA FameLab 2009 Launched!
We are excited to announce that after three hugely successful competitions in 2005, 2006 & 2007 NESTA FameLab is back for 2009! The competition opens with the launching of our new website famelab.org on Monday 2nd March.
FameLab is a competition to find the country's best communicators actively working in science. We are looking for scientists, mathematicians and engineers with a passion for their subject and the talent to communicate it to the public.
FameLab is offering a huge prize pool of £10,000 for the winner and £5,000 for the runner up! Finalists also receive professional training in communication and opportunities to launch their science communication careers. Full details on how to enter the competition and entry criteria are can be found here.
If you want to see the FameLab contestants in action and sample the best in new science communication then go along to your nearest Regional Final, listed here (link to Competition page: 'Where will the competition be this year?'), and make sure that you don't miss the UK and International FameLab Finals at the Cheltenham Science Festival.
