HE Bioscience Teacher of the Year 2012 Finalists announced

The Bioscience Teacher of the Year Award seeks to identify the UK’s leading bioscience university teachers recognising the invaluable role played by Teachers in Higher Education. The closure of the UK Centre for Bioscience in December 2011 offered the Society the opportunity to manage the award and we are delighted to be able to ensure that this Award continues despite the Centre’s closure.

We received an extremely high calibre of nominees and the judges all agreed that shortlisting just 5 finalists was a difficult process. We are therefore delighted to announce that the following individuals have been selected as the finalists for 2012: Dr Momna Hejmadi, University of Bath; Dr Dave Lewis, University of Leeds; Dr Roger Lock, University of Birmingham; Dr Neil Morris, University of Leeds; and Dr Chris Willmott, University of Leicester. Congratulations to you all.

The finalists will next submit a short case study which highlights how they have enhanced bioscience student learning.  These case studies will be made publically available on the Society's website following the announcement of the winner at the Society’s AGM in May.
