schools
I have given many talks to local schools at all levels from Key Stage 1 to A level.
I will also host Masterclasses on particle physics, dark matter or astronomy
here in the Department — please contact me for details. I am a member of the
Department's schools liaison team and a co-investigator on our EPSRC-funded Physics
in Primary Schools project.
See below for a list of talks for schools.
astronomical societies
I am also a regular speaker at local astronomical societies. The table below lists
the talks I have currently available — please contact me if you are interested.
