GRAND FINAL: IOP's 3 Minute Wonder National Science Communication Competition


"Educational, inspiring and entertaining all at once."

The Institute of Physics national 3 Minute Wonder (3MW) science communication competition concludes with the winners from each national and regional heat competing in the GRAND FINAL at the Royal Institution!

3MW challenges researchers or project team members working in a physics related field, and in industry, academia or business, to explain their work in just three minutes; each participant pitching their research to a panel of established science communicators and an interested but non­-specialist audience ...yup that means YOU! Come vote for your winner.

This year the judging panel includes:
• Antonia Seymour (Chief Executive, IOP Publishing)
• Carol Monaghan MP (Science, Innovation, Technology and Education spokesperson in the House of Commons)
• Helen Thomas (Executive Producer BBC, BAFTA winning Science producer)
