Work experience at the Crick

Did you know that the Crick offers work experience to students living or studying in Camden? Work experience placements are a great way to explore the wide range of roles essential to the work of the Crick. If you’re a state school student between 14 and 19 years old, and you live or study in Camden, you can apply for a virtual work experience placement (at certain times of the year).
