This week, our spotlight shines on Dr Marco Bertamini! Come July 5th, Dr Bertamini will be examining our competitors projects and discovering what they have learned. Take a look at his biography and top tips below! Have you entered yet? You could be showcasing your work at The Big Bang North West! Find out more here…

Dr Marco Bertamini

Occupation: Academic Teacher and Researcher

Background: Sciences

Why have you offered to return as a judge for NSEC at The Big Bang North West 2016? It’s lovely to interact with children about science.

What’s the best part of judging? Every project is different, so every time it is about something new.

Do you have any advice for the students who are entering this year? Forget about applications, go for what will provide a discovery of something that we did not know before, or that your project answers a question you wanted answering – applications will follow.

Fun fact about yourself: I like Japanese Manga.

ENTER THE NATIONAL SCIENCE + ENGINEERING COMPETITION HERE!
The closing date for projects to be entered is 6 May 2016
