Public Engagement

At the MRC WIMM, MRC TIDU and MRC MHU, we value public engagement. We believe that sharing our science and working with the wider community improves the quality of scientific research.

Our engagement work would not be possible without the passion and creativity of our community and external partners. We would like to acknowledge everyone who has helped to make these projects happen.

If you are interested in working with us on a future engagement project and would like to find out more, please email: public.engagement@imm.ox.ac.uk

Our public engagement activities are supported by the MRC WIMM Public Engagement and Communications Committee (link requires intranet access). This includes a calendar of activities, such as career talks and participation in Oxford Science & Ideas Festival and other local science festivals.

In the summer, the MRC WIMM runs a 2-week work experience programme for local students. For more information and details on how to apply, see here: MRC WIMM Work Experience Programme.
