Nottingham South MP to visit Summer Scientists Week
Nottingham South MP, Lillian Greenwood has been invited to attend The University of Nottingham's annual Summer Scientist Week. Summer Scientist Week, organised by the School of Psychology at the University, brings together researchers, students, and the local community for a fun, free event which encourages children to become scientists for the day. Ms Greenwood was elected in 2010 to serve as the Labour Member of Parliament for Nottingham South which includes The University of Nottingham. She is attending Summer Scientist Week at 2pm on Friday 16th August. During her visit, Ms Greenwood will be given a tour of the research studies and activities and will be meeting some of the researchers, student volunteers, parents and children who are involved. Lillian Greenwood said: "Summer Scientist Week is a fantastic opportunity for children from across the city to learn about science in a fun and interactive environment. I'm delighted that the School of Psychology has invited me along to meet everyone involved and I look forward to seeing how the children attending are inspired by the projects on offer." During the week, not only are children given an interactive introduction to what psychology is all about, but parents are also able to learn about the most recent research carried out by the University's School of Psychology.
