Over the past year the BBI have contributed expertise, equipment and resources to support UNCOVER, Bristol University COVID-19 Emergency Research Response Group.
Bristol based photographer Tom Skipp has captured portraits of some of the people involved, including BBI Director Dek Woolfson. Tom was motivated to tell the human stories behind the people at Bristol who are playing an important role in global efforts to overcome COVID-19.
A series of these portraits are part of a billboard campaign on show at various locations across Bristol until the 9th May.
