Nottingham Contermporary gallery hosted a final part of a three-day global festival of science 'Pint of Science'. EPSRC CDRT in Sustainable Chemistry was represented by Jonathan Hunter and his photograph titled 'Making light work of chemical reactions' which was awarded third place in the 'Art in Science' competition.
