📚✨ Congratulations to Old Member Hugo Cook (Egyptology, 2017), whose debut book 'Tales of Ancient Egypt' has won an International Literacy Association Book Award in the ‘Non-Fiction for Intermediate Age’ category.
Bringing forgotten Egyptian stories to life, from pyramid heists to the fictional siege tale that might have inspired Homer’s Trojan Horse, Hugo’s book, beautifully illustrated by Sona Avedikian, inspires young readers to embrace wonder and curiosity.
We’re delighted to note that Hugo first translated some of these stories while studying in the Peet Library at Queen’s.

From invisible particles to visible progress. International experimental collaboration MicroBooNE, coordinated in Physics by Fellow in Physics at Queen’s Dr Kirsty Duffy, has just performed the first ever measurement of electron neutrino interactions on argon producing outgoing charged pions. This work is featured on the cover of Physical Review Letters and provides key insights for understanding these notoriously difficult to measure interactions.

We’re delighted that several attendees from our Easter Science Residential have secured places at Oxford this year, including Toby, from Cockermouth School, who will read Chemistry at Queen’s, his twin Alex, and Karol, who’ll study Medicine at LMH.
Students told us the residential demystified Oxford: independent study in the library, a tutorial taster, and time to picture life across the colleges and city, which all helped to build interview confidence.
