A research fellow at the Psychology Department Dr Sophie Meekings has been profiled by the British Science Association as part of Smashing Stereotypes campaign for British Science Week (7th-16th March). britishscienceweek.org/smashing-stere….

I was lucky enough to see a draft of this book but it’s lovely to have the real thing. It’s hard to imagine how @Suchmo83 could surpass his first book, but I suspect that this will be even more useful to teachers and schools. 👏

Whew, that's 43 SUNRAY goody bags delivered to school staff rooms in/around York this term! We hope you enjoyed the treats! ☕️🍫 If your school didn't receive one this time around, please register your interest here so that we prioritise you next time ☀️ sunray.york.ac.uk/join-the-netwo…
