| Primary Audience | Schools |
| Results and Impact | The MIB Open Day was specifically aimed at A-Level students nationally. The day focused on hands-on experiments and lectures to promote working at the interface between chemistry and biology to solve problems with a biological 'green' solution and encourage science students to pick applied science subjects. The feedback was very positive with pupils reporting that they now realized there were a lot more options for further study and jobs than they previously knew about. |

| Results and Impact | The Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition proved so popular that we were asked to be part of The Science Spectacular, 2nd November 2013 at The Manchester Museum http://www.manchestersciencefestival.com/whatson/science-spectacular. The Science Spectacular was aimed primarily at young children and families to encourage children to enjoy science. The feedback from parents was very positive. |
