Results and Impact Science fair hosted by the Leicester grammar school. We hosted a stall all about protein structures and methods for studying structures. I mainly ran a VR experience showing Haemoglobin in 3 dimensions. Explaining the benefit of studying protein structure, and how funding structural studies helps further medicine. The public was engage about the structural techniques especially what is going on in the he new Midlands regional Cryo-EM facility (predominantly funded by the MRC).

The impact of this event helps people understand the purpose of Structural biology and why it's still worth spending money in this field.
