\"Nuffield<\/a>On Friday the 4th of September I had the privilege of supporting our Nuffield student\u00a0for this year, Skye Arnott from Albyn School in Aberdeen, at the celebration event in Surgeon’s Hall in Edinburgh.<\/p>\n

Skye completed an excellent\u00a0and extremely topical\u00a0project\u00a0called “Can we predict jellyfish blooms?” by analysing all the available data and a significant number of plankton samples, collected at Stonehaven as part of the weekly monitoring programme.<\/p>\n

There was great interest in Skye’s poster and project and she confidently and enthusiastically answered all the questions which professional scientists, members of the public and fellow students put to her.<\/p>\n

I really did enjoy what will almost certainly be my last Nuffield celebration event, but there was a serious side, and I am very proud to report that Skye was awarded a Crest Gold award for her project.<\/p>\n

The Nuffield Bursary scheme<\/a> demonstrates that Scotland\u2019s educational system is producing top class students and that given encouragement and opportunity, Scotland\u2019s scientific future should be assured with young talent like this on the way up!<\/p>\n

I also want to thank Dr Kathryn Cook and Jens Rasmussen without whose hard work and guidance none of the projects would have been possible, or as good as they were.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
