Dr Kath Linehan and Chris Hill visited several secondary schools in the South Yorkshire/Derbyshire area during National Science Week to deliver their "Brain Game" presentation to year 9 students. A lively 50 minute presentation involved the children making their own models of nerves, playing brain snap and tasting jelly and blamanche brains...hmmmm lovely!"
