Northern Ireland Science Festival 2022
The Wellcome-Wolfson Institute for Experimental Medicine hosted a sold out event for the NI Science Festival on Saturday 19th February2022, Lab View 360: Biomedical Research in Action. In a change from last year’s online format, WWIEM welcomed 120 Visitors to an in-person event, where they got the opportunity to become a scientist for the afternoon and went on structured lab tours in WWIEM. Through a range of demonstrations and interactive laboratory research activities across three disease areas, eye disease, diabetes/vascular disease, respiratory/infectious disease, the Visitors got a view of working research labs in action.
