Please note we cannot consider applications received after this date.

The annual event – now in its sixth year – is a fantastic opportunity for researchers to share their work with a wide audience.

Last year over 600 visitors of all ages from the local community, patient groups, schools, and UCLH itself come along – and the day always proves to be a huge success.

We ask researchers to ensure that stalls are:

• as interactive and engaging as possible

• about research or innovation that is UCLH based

• run by researchers and their teams
• Lots of fun to visit and to run!

We will be looking for activities that are truly engaging for visitors, rather than a simple display of posters and leaflets, and we will be giving out prizes for the best stalls.

Games, challenges or the chance to try out a piece of equipment tend to work very well. Previous successes include having a go at laparoscopic surgery, learning how ultrasound works by searching for items in jelly, and guessing nutritional values in common foods.
