We'll be talking about #discovery in schools across #Cambridgeshire in September. If you're in the area get in touch and we could be heading to a school near you.

Amazing research by primary students on Viking Poo. They found whipworm eggs -these are the #genomedecoders of the future @WGCengage @sangerinstitute @WormHunters @wormbase This is part of a phenomenal set of presentations by students from schools across North Yorkshire aged 9-18

@catinthefield @TapokaM Yes they're really fun and useful for getting people to explore things at that scale :) We and @WGCengage use them for a few different things. You're more than welcome to get in touch with them through here or at engage@wgc.org.uk if you want to pick their brains at all :)

@TapokaM I like the idea that the kids control the microscope rather than just looking down the eyepiece. Thanks! And everyone remembers the first time they looked at their hair or fingernail...

It was a wonderful evening with such a lively and entertaining group; curious about everything from 20m long intestinal #worms, to how we build a mini gut! #Research #Outreach #BeatNTDs #Organoids #WomenInSTEM 👩🏾‍🔬👊🏾🐛 twitter.com/wormhunters/st…

Us #wormhunters had another fantastic evening with Abington @scouts yesterday. Great to see the children so engaged with @TapokaM's presentation about the work being done at the @sangerinstitute. They had so many questions! Can't wait to share the posters they made. #SciArt

On #EndangeredSpeciesDay, it's worth remembering the parasitic species at risk when their hosts are endangered. We want to #beatNTDs but not cause ecological damage in the process. We #wormhunters were exploring the amazing variation in human parasites with the @scouts this week!
