Member Event: Ever wondered what is happening at Norwich Research Park?

Come and watch 4 short documentaries about the scientists who work there and their world changing businesses.  

Cinema City, 4:15pm Wednesday 3^rd Sep

I’m inviting you to a special screening at Cinema City, Norwich, on Wednesday 3rd September at 4.15pm, showcasing four inspiring short science documentaries created by young people from Norfolk and Suffolk, together with a Q&A session with the contributors.

We would be delighted if you could circulate this invitation with your colleagues, to join us to celebrate these young filmmakers’ achievements and the exciting research taking place in our region.

These films are the result of the STEM Film Academy, a unique initiative run by Eye Film in partnership with Cinema City, Norwich Research Park and the Sir John Hurt Film Trust, with support from the Hornsea 3 Community Fund.

Over an intensive week this summer, participants aged 16–24 trained in documentary filmmaking and explored breakthrough research at the Norwich Research Park, interviewing leading scientists and entrepreneurs. We met Rory from Alora, whose goal is to end world hunger by growing a new rice variant in the sea, Deba from Colorifix explaining how they grow colour from insects, plants and animals, Cristina from Tropic who have developed a non-browning banana and Mia, Melissa and Edyta from the Earlham Institute. Three scientists using biotechnological approaches to research plant, animal and human health.

The films tell human stories behind cutting-edge work in climate change, food, health, and biotechnology and highlight the creativity and talent of the next generation of filmmakers.
