The document discusses public outreach projects conducted by the Faculty of Biological Sciences at Ulberg University. It describes two previous successful projects: the Health and Disease Road Show which engaged 1000 school children in experiments about health and disease, and an event celebrating the work of William Astbury which attracted 30 members of the public through talks and demonstrations. It then outlines future areas of focus, including enhancing undergraduate projects, ethics education in schools, effective research dissemination to the public, and applying for a Wellcome Trust grant.
