Off to the British Science Festival in Newcastle

Getting excited for my trip up north to Newcastle for the British Science Festival that starts this weekend and runs all of next week. I’ll be going as an ‘undercover scientist’ as I’m attending in my role as Guardian journalist instead. I’ll be looking out for interesting new science to cover as news stories and attending the daily press conferences. I’ve got tickets for some of the talks too, with some famous names!

I’m also really looking forward to catching up with all the other Media Fellows from the 2013 batch as there will all be attending too. We can compare our experiences of the world of journalism. I’ll report back in a few weeks.
