To promote particle physics in society, we will be hosting a short video competition for the summer school. The video would be maximum 3 minutes long. You can choose to work on one of these topics:
- What can particle physics do for society?
- What attracts you to do a PhD?
- Pick your favourite physics topic and explain this to public- For example origin of dark matter, flavour violation, discovery of the Higgs boson, neutrinos, gravitational lensing...etc. It does not necessarily to be your PhD topic.
- Prompting Equality, Diversity and Inclusiveness - e.g. highlighting contributions of minorities in physics, showcase initiatives in physics promoting EDI
You can work individually or as a group. You can choose your setting, it would be a lecture room, could be in front of your laptop, in a park.
The winner(s) and prize of the video will be announced in the formal dinner. The winning videos will also feature in STFC outreach media and the summer school webpage.
If you are interested in participating and may need assistance please do not hesitate to contact Yanyan (yanyan.gao@ed.ac.uk), Linda Cremonesi (l.cremonesi@qmul.ac.uk) or any other staff members in the school.
