Machopiggies, congratulations!

Each week the scientists taking part in the MRC Festival Zone will nominate their top student – one who’s made the most of the event, shown enthusiasm and asked some really great questions.

Machopiggies is from Ysgol Rhosnesni High School, and was nominated for their great ASK questions, especially: Have you considered that prisoners contemplate suicide, or do it, because they feel that their life is at a complete loss? I think if activities or small jobs that pay tokens for non-contraband equipment (please don’t ask me what), maybe it could significantly drop the suicide and mental health rate of prisoners?

One scientist nominated machopiggies for “an incredible ASK question, and showing real care for all people in society, as well as thinking of ways to make life better for them.”

As the student winner, Machopiggies will bag a £20 voucher and certificate!

Want to be in with a chance of winning? Keep ASKing the scientists about their work over the next week and join in the next evening chat, 7-8pm, Wednesday 13th June.
