Thanks to all the students, scientists and teachers that have taken part in the Marine Zone!
It has been a fab 4 weeks. We hope you’ve enjoyed it – and we hope you’ve learnt something about what it’s like being a scientist.
There have been some excellent questions asked by students.
Here are some of my favourites – click to read the answers!
- What is the most exciting discovery you have made?
- do you try to maintain genetic diversity in farmed populations?
- In your opinion what is the most effective strategies for preserving endangered marine species
Throughout the Zone students have been voting for their favourite scientist.
That scientist will win £500 to spend on more STEM engagement.
We are very excited to announce that the winner of the Marine Zone is…

Jonathan received the most votes from the students overall!
Though the Zone has come to an end, you can view it at any time, to look back at the scientists’ profiles, and see the answers they gave.
Thank you all so much for taking part. We hope that you enjoyed the experience, and of course learned a thing or two along the way 🙂 See you all again soon!
