Celebrating Life Sciences Poster Competition

Pupils from both St Machar Academy and Aberdeen Grammar submitted entries for the competition. Two pupils from St Machar Academy visited ONE BioHub with their teacher on the day of the launch and were among the first to view the new £40million facilities. Pupils from Aberdeen Grammar School and Northfield Academy hope to visit at a later date.

The pupils’ posters were of an excellent standard and demonstrated good planning, research and presentation. The finalists’ posters were on display during the official launch event and guests had the opportunity to ‘vote’ on their favourite, using a token system similar to those run in supermarkets for charity selection. This inclusion in the launch event provided additional recognition for the young people’s efforts and also connected young people with ONE BioHub from the outset.
