The final of the Junk the Jargon competition was last Wednesday, 27th Jan (apologies for the delay in posting this!), and I was really pleased with how well the whole event went. The ten finalists, who had three minutes each to entertain the audience by talking about their research, all did an amazing job, and on top of that we had a packed and appreciative audience, a panel of very experienced expert judges and generally a great atmosphere.
The winner was Claire Sarell from the School of Biological & Chemical Sciences, who entertained the audience with her talk "What causes Alzheimer's disease?". Runners-up were Katie Lidster, who used cuddly mouse models to illustrate her presentation on "How do mice with green eyes contribute to MS research?", and Rebecca Burgell who also used very inventive props in her delightfully titled talk "CODE BROWN/CODE RED!!! Causes of constipation".
More information about the event can be found on the QM news site, and a video of the event can be seen here.
