I’m a Scientist, Get me out of here!!
I’ve been lucky enough to be chosen as one of the scientists to take part in “I’m a Scientist, Get me out of here”. I’ve been sectioned into the Helium zone along with four other scientific folk. For two weeks we will be pitted against each other in a battle to entertain school kids with science. The ultimate prize is a £500 Wellcome trust gift to use to communicate our work.
Over the past week we have all set up a profile that the kids will get acquainted with before we go live on Monday 15th March (That’s tomorrow – eep). Over the course of the two weeks we will answer lots of questions from the students and also take part in a number of live chats. As the two weeks progress the students get to vote for their favourite scientist – periodically the scientist with the least votes will have to exit the competition until one winner from each zone emerges.
As far as I’m aware it’s only the school kids that get to post questions, however everyone can keep up to date with what’s happening via the site. So get your popcorn ready and settle down for lots of scientific fun. I can’t wait, It’s going to be awesome however long it lasts

Between her and the blood guy I’ve got some stiff competition. I think I can take them, I mean who wouldn’t think growing yeast and tinkering with computers was the coolest thing ever?!

You’re up against someone that lives in the Antarctic. You’ve got no chance! =P
