      I would use it to design and run after school science club for schools which would allow me to do cool experiments like make slime and learn about muscles and learn about being a crime scene investigator! It would help encourage students to be exciting and learn about science

      I would spend it coming into schools demonstrating my computer model as a way to teach about the heart and how it works. I would use some of the money to adapt the computer programme i already use with patients to make it more like a game that would be educational. It would be a lot of fun 🙂

      I would use the money to buy new equipment for my work so they can do even more experiments when they go to schools. I also hope that the money would let our institute go to even more local schools each year and inspire children like you all!

      I would use it to take science experiments and talks to schools that don’t have easy access to these things, so that all school children in my area can find out how fun science can be. We do things like use big empty plastic bottles, water, and plastic tubing to work out how much air a person’s lungs can hold. We also use marshmallows and plastic syringes to demonstrate something called “Boyle’s Law”. So many fun things to do with kids that might make them think about a job in science. 🙂
