Challenge 3
Anti Doping Challenge
Win £3000 for your club and an exclusive visit to the Science Museum!
Registration for the competition element of this Challenge has now closed. However, you can still download all of the materials to use in your classroom or clubs.
This is in addition to a curator-led tour of the Science Museum, a private viewing of the "Who am I?" exhibition, a behind-the-scenes tour of the IMAX theatre and time in the Launchpad gallery.
We'll cover the expenses for up to six pupils and two adults, including transport, accommodation and meals.
We're challenging pupils to prove to GSK and King's College London that they have the skills to perform some of the anti-doping laboratory techniques. From laboratory accreditation and quantitative analysis to security and ensuring the chain of custody of samples, this challenge really does give you an insight into what an anti-doping laboratory does.
