Each year the “Ambassador of the Year” award goes to the member who has been most active in raising awareness of the Society. The prize consists of a small £250 travel grant which can be used towards the costs of attending a conference of their choice.

For 2015 we are pleased to announce that the award goes to Professor Ari Sadanandom (School of Biomedical Sciences, University of Durham, UK). Congratulations and thank you for all your help and support!

marketing & communications strategist, SEB

Sabina is responsible for managing our marketing & communications strategy and activities as well as our member services. Her main role is to ensure we are meeting our member's needs by identifying and delivering impovements to our activities. Science communication to non-scientific audiences has many benefits for researchers and the public alike. For scientists this is an opportunity to explain their work and why it is important which in turn could gain more public support for their research. And you may even find that you will get ideas you never thought about for your research. For the general public, we often find that the media might not always communicate the latest scientific findings accurately and that it tends to focus on the most popular stories. Scientists can play an important role here by helping to better inform the public. In this article we caught up with some of our members to find out about their science communication activities.
