What is Soapbox Science?

Soapbox Science is a public outreach platform that promotes women scientists and the science they do. Events are hosted in the UK and across the world to celebrate women in STEMM, breaking down barriers and challenging stereotypes about who a STEMM researcher is.

Soapbox Science events transform public areas into an arena for public learning and scientific debate; they follow the format of London Hyde Park’s Speaker’s Corner, which is historically an arena for public debate.

, Research Fellow in the School of Life Sciences and lead event organiser, said: “Like so many other events, last year we had to go virtual with Soapbox Science. However, we are really hoping the 2022 event can be held in-person at our usual spot on Brighton seafront. Soapbox Science offers a great opportunity for scientists at all levels – from PhD to Professor – to get some experience sharing their research to members of the public in a fun, accessible format. It’s a great day and I can’t wait to see who applies!”
