Physicists predict

"Thousands of people can be killed, injured or made homeless by a volcano, earthquake or tsunami. I try to find ways to predict when danger looms and warn whole cities to evacuate, saving thousands of lives."

Physicists inspire

"Creating live, fun, action packed talks for youngsters gives me a real buzz and really inspires children to think about science."

Physicists protect

"Why is climate change such a threat? Working in Environmental Physics I can construct models of how the land and oceans are changing and what effect our lifestyle has on them."

Physicists save

"Faced with a tiny baby born 15 weeks early I need to work fast to set up all the technical devices we need to save her life."
