talkingwithteachers

It was informative to speak at The Making Material Matters Teachers conference at Ironmongers Hall in London. 
https://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/visiting-and-outreach/outreach-events/making-materials-matter-teachers?wssl=1  The space was truly magnificent and the whole event was so well planned.  It was great to hear positive feedback of what we've been doing at the Maxwell. The collaborative nature of the project and the way it has enabled and nurtured voices from different fields especially from outside were seen as positive and in some cases revelatory. It was wonderful to hear the circular thoughts around material development in the future from Professor Mark Miodownik http://www.markmiodownik.net/ and the enthusiasm levels emanating from Professor Becky Parker http://www.iop.org/about/awards/hon_fellowship/hon_fellows/page_64158.html made me almost want to become a scientist. A link to the presentation.  https://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/presentation-for-conference-with-youtube-links
