Platelet Society researchers have run two recent outreach events to highlight our work to members of the public.

Skirting Science, University of Bristol:

Ingeborg Hers, Samantha Moore & Gail Born at the University of Bristol took part in Skirting Science;Skirting Science is an award-winning event organised by Soroptimist International, that aims to inspire the next generation of female scientists. They delivered a workshop that provided a hands-on experience of being a research scientist.

BHF Supporters’ Event, University of Birmingham:

Gayle Halford and members of the Birmingham Platelet Group organised an event for regional BHF Supporters; the day kicked off with various talks, then Supporters were taken on laboratory tours, experienced and interacted with two major forms of cardiac assessment – cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and were given the chance to look down microscopes at cells, learn to pipette and play some fun games.
