Our 2019 TMCS Cohort

Our 2018 TMCS Cohort

 

Using Virtual Reality to explain Chemistry

Rhoslyn Roebuck Williams and Izzy Creed from the Theory and Modelling in Chemical Systems (TMCS) Centre for Doctoral Training went to The Royal Society alongside students from Bristol and Southampton to use Virtual Reality (VR) to explain antibiotic resistance to members of the general public on Tuesday 2nd July.

Other students from TMCS (Harry Stroud, Izzy Creed, Jillisa Thompson and Tristan Johnston-Wood) have also used the new VR kit to explain the importance of Theoretical Chemistry to prospective undergraduates at this year's open day.
