FameLab International Final 2017

Tshiamo Legoale, a Geologist from South Africa, was crowned the 2017 FameLab International Champion and Audience Vote Winner at the Cheltenham Science Festival on 8 June. She successfully competed against 31 science communicators from across the world.

Tshiamo’s talk was informative and inspiring, winning the judges over on content, clarity and charism. In her winning presentation on phytomining, she described how plants can absorb specific metals from the environment into their tissues and how this process can be used to literally ‘harvest’ gold from wheat.
