    Hello! Is it possible to participate as a recently graduated student — even if I will be not formally enrolled in another university course by October?

      Hi Martina, I’m afraid not, sorry – but do keep an eye out as we may run a similar competition next year if this is successful!

    Hello! Is it mandatory to be associated with an educational insititute to take part in this competition? I was working as a post doctoral fellow till last December (currently not affiliated with any University or Institute) and would like to participate.

      Dear Anupriya,

      I’m afraid not, you do have to be currently enrolled.

      Kind regards

      Amy

    Hello

    I just finished my PhD and I am awaiting my viva. Does that count as still being a student and can I enter the competition? From September on I will be a research intern at the Open University in Milton Keynes as well.

    Yours sincerely
    Samuel

    Hello! Must the answer be strictly 600 words or they can be up to 600?

    I just sent in my entry but Julie Gould, the editor is out of the office until September 14th. Should I send it to a different address instead?

    Have the winners been announced already? I guess so – it’s been a month already. Are their texts available to read somewhere?
