Science in society

We are embedding a culture whereby public attitudes and interests are considered routinely and used to inform our policy formation and funding.

Our science in society activities in public engagement are overseen by the Bioscience for Society Strategy Panel whose membership includes experts in social science, ethics and education.

We help to deliver the RCUK Science in society strategy and work with many other organisations including the British Science Association, the Royal Society and Understanding Animal Research.
