| Liverpool Life Sciences UTC News |
Staff from AstraZeneca, including a Director, Principal Scientist and Virologist and a Scientist who is an ex-student of Liverpool Life Sciences UTC spent two hours speaking to over 25 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 in October 2023 and the students have been researching the problem in their Project Based Learning sessions since. Tuesday was a chance for them to pitch their vaccine designs to staff from AstraZeneca as an academic conference style poster presentation. For many of the students it was the first time they have presented research in this format and despite some understandable early nerves they acquitted themselves incredibly well. It was a fantastic way to end the project and we received excellent feedback from the visitors and staff who attended the event.
