Science Together: Oxford Researchers and Communities

PI: Moore, Oliver

MPLS Divisional Office

Science Together: Oxford Researchers and Communities programme (STORC) connects thirty-three research staff and students to eight community groups in Oxfordshire. Of these participating researchers, thirteen are in EPSRC research areas including Physics, Engineering Science, Materials Science and Computing Science.

This proposal is for a Science Showcase event featuring these EPSRC researchers who are working with Oxfordshire community groups to co-develop research projects based on the communities' needs and opportunities. We aim to engage 800 people online and in-person through the event, giving attendees a unique insight into the research undertaken by EPSRC researchers and its application to local issues.
