Fancy getting a new efficient, heating system for free?

We're looking for homeowners with electric heating and smart meters to join our research project (note we are looking for quite a select target group - so please pass on to anyone you think might fit the bill/benefit).

A fun evening at Glasgow Science Centre Lates! Last night we took some activities along to the event for adults, discussing how different forces affect cell fate.

That’s a wrap on British Science week for CeMi 🔬🧬🧫!
