With over 4,500 people attending this year's Swansea Science Festival, the NP BioHUB team want to say thank you to everyone who came over to our stand and engaged with our team - we hope you enjoyed as much as we did!
What a fantastic turnout! This year's Swansea Science Festival attracted over 2,000 people on Saturday 26th and a whopping 2,500+ on Sunday 27th!
With this being our second year in attendance, The Natural Products BioHUB team would like to say a massive thank you to the organising committee for putting together such an engaging event. It was great to see so many young people showing an interest in science, with our algal and fungal display being a clear hit.
Over the course of the weekend we showcased multiple strains of different fungi and algae through our microscope and even had some algae bubbling away to replicate what we do in our labs. From seaweed snacks, to haircare and even Lego, it's amazing to see how these cultures can be found in everyday products.
If you'd like to know more about the work that we do at the NP BioHUB, then get in touch with our team at biohub@swansea.ac.uk.
We hope to see you all next year!
