A difficult question to answer since everyone has suggested great ideas of how to use the money if they won. I guess in the end you just need to decide whose answers to different questions you like best and who you feel has helped you to understand those answers best. Hopefully all our answers will make people interested in different types of science, and we will get some good new investigators in the future.

I agree, everyone has such great ideas of how to spend the money.
I would love to design and print out big posters with a selection of the best and most interesting questions asked (and answered) on here and send them out to all the schools taking part.
That way your teacher could put the posters up in your class and you could always be reminded of how much fun you had taking part, and learn about some of the most interesting topics. It would also remind you to take part next year!

That bit is up to you! I think you just need to choose who helped you understand the science and also who inspired you 🙂
I would like to set up a day in all the labs across the university where I work to have children from lots of different schools come into the labs and meet the scientists. They could have a go at doing some experiments and seeing what we really do in the lab. Not many people get to meet scientists, and we don’t always get a chance to meet the scientists of the future – you guys! I think the best way to inspire people is to actually bring them to see the types of things that will interest them. I would have loved to go to a real lab when I was back at school!
