Join ZSL scientists online for free, interactive chats about conservation careers during Biology Week 2024.
This Biology Week, we can bring ZSL's scientists to you! Join ZSL online from your classroom, and give your secondary school students the opportunity to meet a ZSL expert, free of charge.
These free, interactive, online chats run during Biology Week (October) and British Science Week (March) each year. We give your students the opportunity to meet experts from the Zoological Society of London, exploring careers in biological and conservation science. Our scientists share their experiences and insights, and give your students the chance to ask their own questions.
Meet the experts
The sessions will feature ZSL scientists who are experts in conservation, zoology, and ecology, sharing their journeys in science and their passion for wildlife conservation. Each session provides a unique chance for students to engage directly, ask questions, and explore what it's really like to work in conservation. Information about the scientist your class will be meeting will be sent ahead of time so students can prepare their questions.
