Six UCL scientists are taking part in the 2011 I’m a Scientist, Get me out of Here!: an award-winning science enrichment and engagement activity, funded by the Wellcome Trust.  It’s an X Factor-style competition for scientists, where students are the judges. Scientists and students talk online on the website below. They both break down barriers, have fun and learn. But only the students get to vote.

Simon Bennett, Kimberly Bryon and Sam Tazzyman talk to Clare Ryan about taking part.
