I'm currently solving this problem:

I’m currently helping one of our teams, who have some pretty snazzy kit, to find other researchers who might want to use it to help their science. It involves several things: making a new web page, writing articles and producing social media content such as videos to help advertise the team. It’s very fun, as we have a clear aim – get people asking us questions!

We also have some really fun public engagement planned for this summer. We’re going to the Royal Society Summer Science Showcase, but because of COVID-19 we have to make all our resources available online. That means we’re making an online game and a documentary all about bees and what flowers they like. It’s all very new, so quite a challenge.

We’re also about to start a pretty amazing project called “Biodiversity on the Norfolk Broads”. That’s all about the Darwin Tree of Life Project. We’re going to be working with schools and nature groups to sample wildlife and actually do the science – getting the DNA information from all the species we find – and using that to help us complete the real life project!
