Before the event, we invited schools to participate in a research project that would be showcased at the conference in the session Science for Experimentation.
All schools were competing for The Association for Clinical Biochemistry & Laboratory Medicine Trophy for the Don Henderson Award.
The conference featured a diverse range of outstanding presentations, as always.
This year’s recipients of the Don Henderson Award were the students from Leytonstone School for their project, Antimicrobial efficacy of honey and three antibiotics against e.coli.
