Boulby Underground Laboratory

Congratulations to Beth, one of Boulby’s Lab Laboratory Technician Apprentices, who was just awarded the Outreach Award at the @STFC_Matters Apprentice Awards evening! 🥳🎉

We wouldn’t be able to operate our deep underground #cleanrooms if it weren’t for the people who make it possible – Maria, our Soft Services Manager, being one of them!

Check out this article from Mitie in which Maria talks about maintaining cleanrooms 1.1km underground! 👇👀

Getting FOMO for our Dark Matter Day live link? 😥

Well worry no more! You can catch the whole lab tour, plus the Dark Matter Mask crafting session and QnA, on our YouTube channel... 🎥📺

Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting a visit from @IFLScience - a popular internet publication covering nature, science, technology, and more 🧪🪐

We’ll be sharing any content that gets published, so keep an eye out for some familiar faces from the Boulby team! 👀

For the past few weeks, Jonny has been polling the team through a series of fun, fridge-mounted surveys... 🥪📋

In the lead up to #Halloween, the team was asked, “What is the scariest thing that you can think of?” 🎃👻

Here’s what everyone had to say ⬇️💭
