Take part and win some fantastic prizes!
Scientists in Sport anti-doping challenge
27 Jan 2012
Five new performance-enhancing drugs have been added to the banned substance list – and it’s up to you to develop a portable kit to test whether or not an athlete has taken one of them!
The Scientists in Sport anti-doping challenge invites teams of 11-14 year olds to design and make a portable drug testing kit.
There are some fantastic prizes on offer – including up to £1000 worth of equipment for your school, official London 2012 merchandise, a tour of the anti-doping laboratory, gift vouchers for pupils … and more! Entrants will also be able to submit their work for a CREST Award.
There will be two Grand Finals – one at the London Science Museum and one at the Glasgow Science Centre. You can specify your preferred venue when registering your team.
Schools are welcome to enter as many teams as they wish – you’ll just have to create a different login for each team so they can access their online entry form.
Register your team online and receive login details to access the resources.
Scientists in Sport is a GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) schools outreach programme. The programme forms part of the practical learning strand of Get Set plus.
