Liston-Dooley lab at the Cambridge Festival!

Our lab is gearing up for the Cambridge Festival! A lot of amazing activities, with something for everyone, so hopefully everyone in Cambridge can come and join at least one of these.

First of all, for our youngest visitors come along to a book reading of our kids books "Maya's Marvellous Medicine" and "Battle Robots of the Blood". We'll have some colouring in too, to keep them busy.

For kids a little older, Family Day at Pathology has a ton of activities! Our lab is hosting a display of "VirusFighter". See how your kids would have done as PM during the pandemic, or test whether they can successfully engineer a bioweapon to stop an invasion of wombats! (They can also play online now!)

 For all ages, we have a real treat, Sensory Science. This is a fantastic program that uses multi-sensory art to communicate the science of pathology. Honestly, everyone should come and experience this exhibit at St Catharine's College, the teams have put in so much work into their art piece. Our lab has coordinate the program and is exhibiting new art on neuroinflammation and cancer formation. We are also hosting the amazing Dr Erica Tandori, who started the Sensory Science movement back in Australia, and specialises in making science communication accessible to the blind and low vision community.

Finally, adults interested in the immune system are welcome to join my public seminar on how diversity shapes our immune responses!
