Liverpool Life Sciences UTC News |
Staff from AstraZeneca, including a Principal Scientist, a Virologist, and a Scientist who is an ex-student of Liverpool Life Sciences UTC, were at the CUC for 3 hours, speaking to over twenty A-Level Biology students about their research.
The students were set the challenge of designing a vaccine which could be rapidly produced to deal with a fictional strain of "Airborne Ebola". Staff from AstraZeneca pitched the challenge to students at the start of the school year, and the students have been researching the problem in their Project-Based Learning sessions since.
It was a chance for students to pitch their vaccine designs to experts from AstraZeneca as an academic conference-style poster presentation. For many of the students, it was the first time they had presented research in this format, and the quality of the poster presentations they produced were amazing.
It was a fantastic way to end the project, and at least 10 students will be awarded a bespoke week-long work experience placement at AstraZeneca in Speke to learn about all aspects of the business.
