“I had an amazing first experience with public engagement at Soapbox Science in Glasgow” says Ria Vaportzis (@RiaVaportzis). “The audience was engaged and asked a lot of interesting questions. We laughed a lot and had a great time. I’m looking forward to the next opportunity to present my research to the public.” If you missed out Ria in Glasgow, the drawing below captures the highlights of the day 🙂
