Welcome to the online booking system for Summer Scientist Week 2024

Summer Scientist Week is a free event for 4-11 year-olds and their parents, which gives a fun introduction to the mind and brain.

For general information about the event, please see our Facebook page, and our University page.

Summer Scientist Week takes place from 31st July to 4th August, 2023.

This year we are running games in-person and online. The in-person sessions are most suitable for children aged 4-11 years, although there will be opportunities for older siblings to take part in some activities. We also have toys to keep younger siblings happy!

Please read this year's Information Sheet for more details about the event.

Here are the directions to the in-person event.


All of this year's sessions are now fully booked, but you can still add your name to the waiting list, or cancel your booking.

To change a booking, you will need to join the waiting list for the new session.
