Great day with #BriarwoodSchool for a work inspiration trip to #ScienceCreates 🌿
With hands-on science making seaweed pods as a plastic alternative. Ending with a tour of Science Creates incubator.
Real science, real inspiration🌍

A collage of photos with the words "Work Inspiration Trip at: Wellcome Genome Campus" across the top. The background image shows students in white lab coats seated around a table in a lab, with a bright screen displaying vibrant scientific images (plants, animals, cells). Five smaller circular photos are layered on top of the background image. Two of the images are positioned underneath the title: The left one shows a student pipetting a blue liquid into a microplate. The right shows two students sitting opposite each other, both placing their pipettes into different test tubes filled with red, yellow, blue, and green liquid. There are three images at the bottom of the collage: The left image shows two pairs of hands squishing strawberries in a zip-lock bag. The middle image shows a student pouring their squished strawberries into a funnel lined with filter paper, which is dripping liquid into a jug. The right image shows a hand holding a toothpick, with a large blob of strawberry DNA at the tip. The Lightyear Foundation logo is in the top right corner, and all the images are bordered in yellow.
We took 12 Granta School students to the Wellcome Genome Campus.
DNA, pipettes, lab tours, and big science energy!
“I got a really big bit of DNA!”
“It was so calming pipetting... like yoga.”
Huge thanks to the Wellcome team for the inspiration! 💜
