CLAIRE

This leaves just “professional monkey watcher” Suzanne and “epic, scatterbrain, nerd” Renata to fight it out for the £500 prize tomorrow. What would they both do with the money, you ask?

Suzanne says “I’d organise events at UCL and school visits to experiment with human understanding of baboon sounds – I want to know whether you can guess what the baboons are saying!” and Renata says “I would use the money to promote the project “Storm Petrels in Portugal”, which gives people, from all ages and backgrounds, the opportunity to join a research expedition and experience science from inside.”

The competition is hotting up and the scientists are pulling out all the stops to secure your all important final vote. Only you decide who gets the £500 prize. Not your teacher, not the other scientists.

If you haven’t made up your mind why not ask the scientists those all important tie breaker questions to help you decide? ASK your question

One student in each zone will win a £20 WH Smith voucher for asking the best questions in the opinion of the moderators. So keep asking those mind boggling questions that push the scientist to their limits, and it might just be you…

May the best scientist win.
