Spooky pumpkin and potions

Overview

Wolfson members will present their research with a Halloween-inspired twist.

The event will also include frightening facts in the sciences, and a trick-or-treat inspired game.

Attendees are invited to dress up for this event in Halloween costumes, which could connect to your favourite study system or anything science or Halloween related. 

The Scary Science Stories event will be followed by the WCSA Halloween formal hall (7.15pm, students only).

For those unable to attend the Halloween formal, we will continue in the Roger Needham room from 7-8pm with pizza, music and socialising.
