College of Science Research ‘Buzz Week’ Tours 6th, 7th and 10th June 2022

As part of University of Lincoln‘s ‘Research Buzz Week’ the College of Science is organising a number of tours of research facilities and laboratories in June 2022 to showcase the exciting research being carried out in the College, and to inspire colleagues in the commercial sector and across the University to collaborate with the College in new research challenges and opportunities.

This is a unique opportunity for those attending to learn more about the amazing research academic colleagues and research students are working on within the College, and to see and learn more about each of the School, Centre and Institute research activities and facilities.

Each guided tour will include explanations of the facilities on show, demonstrations, posters and videos. Each tour also offers its own unique opportunities as set out below.
