Entrants must have a first degree in science, engineering, mathematics, medicine. Age group - up to 35 years
FameLab is trying to find people who want to talk about their work, not the people who have already shifted into science communication or promotion as a full-time career.
We welcome:
- University students in science, mathematics, engineering and medical subjects (with a minimum of a first degree in science)
- Early to mid-stage career researchers
- Lecturers in science, mathematics, engineering, medicine and medical subjects, including specialist science teachers with a science degree
- Researchers who use existing research or meta-studies
- People who work on applying science, technology, mathematics, medicine, medical sciences – for example, patent clerks, statisticians, computer technicians, consultants to industry…
- People who apply science, mathematics, engineering, medicine, medical sciences in the armed forces or government bodies
- People who apply science, engineering, mathematics, medicine, medical sciences in industry or business
Unfortunately we can’t accept people who are:
- Press or PR officers, even for science-related organisations
- Artists who work on science-related themes
- Performers whose shows are about science or engineering
- Science museum/centre staff who work exclusively or mainly with the public
- Journalists or broadcasters (as their main or only job)
- Non-specialist school teachers
- Also people involved in the social sciences
UNLESS that activity is a temporary placement or a short-term job, and they plan to return to practising or researching science or engineering in the near future.
If in doubt, please ask us to make a decision.
Thanks and good luck!
