What Is Famelab?
Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths are fascinating subjects to learn, but not always the easiest of subjects to talk about, and that’s the idea behind FameLab - one of the biggest science communication competitions in the world initiated by Cheltenham Science Festival in the UK, and brought to Qatar by the British Council and Qatar National Research Fund (QNRF). FameLab Qatar is supported by our local partner, the Ministry of Education and Higher Education.
Participants are expected to deliver an entertaining and original three-minute talk about any scientific topic without using PowerPoint or other electronic presentation tools and with limited use of props. The talk must be scientifically accurate, but also engaging to a non-scientific audience.
Why participate in FameLab?
FameLab works by identifying, training and mentoring young scientists and engineers to enable them to communicate effectively in a media intensive environment in which we all live. You will benefit from:
- Learning why public engagement is important
- Enhan
