In addition to this core panel, we have contacts with over 1200 media friendly scientists, all experts in their fields and keen to do media work.
We also work closely with more then 500 UK science press officers to ensure that whenever science hits the headlines, we can offer some of the best scientists in the country to journalists needing an interview. |
