Staff in the School of Biosciences have been recognised at the University Teaching Awards ceremony
. Dr. Jeremy Rossman received the Sciences Faculty Teaching Prize from the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Dame Julia Goodfellow, for the development of novel approaches to teaching Virology. His work with final year students encourages them to engage with cutting edge literature, placing them at the centre of the discovery process and developing the critical evaluation skills that are essential in scientific research.
Capping an extraordinary year of achievement, Dr. Peter Klappa was presented with a special (and surprise!) award at the ceremony in recognition of his sustained excellence in teaching. As part of the 50th Anniversary celebrations that are commencing this academic year, Dr. Klappa was presented with the award by Pro-Vice-Chancellor Professor Chris Davies. It follows his award of a National Teaching Fellowship in July 2014.
