Share your science and inspire the public at the next Soapbox Science event on Saturday 1 June 2024.

If you are a woman or non-binary person* in STEMM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Medicine) and are passionate about sharing your research and inspiring the next generation of scientists, then this event could be for you.

Soapbox Science is returning to Brighton seafront on Saturday 1 June 2024 and until 29 February.

What is 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.

What is Soapbox Science Brighton?

The Brighton event, now in its eighth year, is organised by a group of staff at the аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û and is part of the festival Brighton Fringe.

Dr Maria Clara Castellanos (School of Life Sciences) and Dr Darren Baskill (School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences), event co-organisers, said: “Soapbox Science offers a great opportunity for scientists at all levels – from PhD to Professor – to get experience sharing their research to members of the public in a fun, accessible format. It’s a great day and we can’t wait to see who applies.”
