Public Engagement award for the VirusFighter team

Congratulations to the VirusFighter team for winning the Babraham Institute Public Engagement Award! VirusFighter is the reincarnation of VirusBreak. Over the last year I've worked with the PhD students in our lab, Amy Dashwood, Ntombizodwa Makuyana and Magda Ali, together with lab alumni David Posner, to create missions for VirusFighter - allowing the player to be Prime Minister of the UK during different virus outbreaks. GameDoctor created the interface, with liason via the PE team here at the Babraham Institute.

Congrats to Amy, Tombi, Magda and David - a huge contribution to scientific communication, and all during the first year of their PhDs!
