      I dont think i’ve won any prizes in this area, although I have been awarded competitive funding from applications. I did win the inaugural modern art prize at school through for my tulip and turf inside a chicken-wire cage.

      I won ‘best student performance’ award for my masters degree, and I’ve won money in terms of funding applications (for my PhD, a study visit in the USA, and to do a summer research project)

      I won an award for my dissertation (big project) during my undergrad degree. I’ve also received quite a lot of funding, which is great as it helps me to do more science! I was awarded a place at a summer school in Greece last year, which was so much fun! There are lots of different ways to win awards, but it can be very competitive.

      Not really, no. I remember doing a physics based project back in Y8 called the Great Egg Race but my team lost… We broke our egg…
