Description
"We invite you to be inspired, creative and learn about the fascinating world of research with a programme full of hands-on activities, exhibits and shows from across disciplines. There will be something for all ages: From an inflatable planetarium and simulations of the northern light sky to muddy mini-experiments, DNA origami and time-travelling pollen, from poetry and brain puzzles to watching clever dogs, counting dolphins and making your very own dragon."Along with two other members of my research group I contributed an interactive stall called "Time Travelling Pollen" about the use of pollen preserved in peat and lake sediments to understand past environmental and climatic conditions.
