It was a pleasure to coordinate @UofGlasgow’s contribution to #Explorathon21 - thanks to everyone who led an event or came along to this European-wide festival! Fingers crossed we can do it again next year 🤞
A huge thanks to everyone who made @ernscot #Explorathon21 happen! From immunology-themed escape rooms to music-inspired walks & even a research-fuelled pub quiz, this year’s diverse programme connected Scotland, Europe & the world with #TeamUofG. 🌍🧪 explorathon.co.uk/
