Education

Education

The Biochemical Society aims to support teachers in confidently delivering the curriculum; inspire and engage young people in Biology, inform the general public, encourage the uptake of the biosciences by post-16 students, influence regulatory and awarding bodies towards a challenging, exciting and relevant biology curriculum and establish and maintain effective lines of communication with schools.

 

We deliver the above through a diverse programme of events and resources: from school science websites, teachers' workshops, outreach events, studentship grants, careers information to young researchers' symposia.
