  • The scientific profession
    People get into science for many reasons, but an underlying passion is a central component. The scientific life is varied and full of highs and lows, heady discoveries and doleful disillusionment.

  • Science and Politics
    How do scientists sway politicians? How do politicians sway scientists? Are these two camps ever going to be able to communicate?

  • Science in novels and plays
    There aren't many examples of "lab lit" fiction, but awareness of the genre seems to be gaining ground.

  • Science Communication
    From information overload to increasing worries about technological backlash, the drive to explain science to the public, and to make it more appealing to them, has never been stronger.

  • Science in films and TV
    If producers only stick to the scientific facts, will the result just be boring viewing? And how much poetic license is too much?

  • Science and Poetry
    Science lore is becoming more and more a part of our common language and is increasingly being used as metaphor.

  • The cutting edge of science and technology
    Scientists are always striving to do, make, develop or discover the next big thing, but one person's advance might be another person's step-too-far.

  • Different cultures, different stereotypes?
    Do scientific stereotypes vary around the world? Or is the "boffin" image the same everywhere?

  • Science and Religion
    Scientists and people with religious faith often clash in their world beliefs and thought processes; these differences are intriguing but also cause strife.

  • Science and Art
    Intriguing juxtaposition or pretentious clap-trap? Natural allies or alien nations? Whatever your views, science and art are being linked together more and more often by the intelligentia (and funding bodies).

  • Science and Ethics
    Scientific research doesn't occur in an Ivory Tower -- all actions have consequences, and scientists often clash with the general public on what is right.
