Democracy

SCC2011

It’s good to present on the first day of a conference. You get it out of the way and can start to enjoy the social (read liquid) elements in much more depth. The danger is that on the second day you might get asked to step in for an ill Read more…

Loin of Lamb and Apple Charlotte

Last Friday Sophia and I finally made it to Oxford to have dinner with Dr Mark Roberts, winner of the Fluorine Zone in June 2010. Mark and his girlfriend Elsa had joined us for our post-event party in Bristol. As a way of saying thank you for a night out Read more…

I’m a Scientist at the Science Council

Last Thursday was exactly a year since Sophia and I presented our plans for I'm a Scientist to the Society Award Grants Committee at the lovely Wellcome Trust.

The I’m a Scientist Team

As I read through some of the final comments on the I’m a Scientist site, I was struck by the number of messages of thanks from the Scientists to the moderators. This year was a little different for us, particularly for Sophia, as for once she had to step back from Read more…

I’m a Scientist – dialogue goes social

I’m buzzing. I’ve been buzzing for 9 days now. Why am I buzzing? I’m a Scientist, Get me out of Here! is on. I’ve been running this type of online engagement event for 8 years now.  You’d have thought I’d be used to it by now, but almost everytime the Read more…

I’m a Scientist gets the go-ahead

Two and a half years ago, in May 2007, Sophia and I started looking at extending the I’m a Councillor event.  We started a budget for I’m a Scientist, Get me out of here.  We applied to the Wellcome Trust to fund a pilot.  That kicked off in June 2008.  Read more…

Why I like the Wellcome Trust

I like the Wellcome Trust. They funded the I'm a Scientist pilot project.  They funded the Debate Kits extension. But that's not why I like them. They invited Sophia and I to a Grantholders' Networking Day at their Euston Road HQ today. They have a lovely building.  Light, airy, efficient, Read more…

Evaluate everything

I'm not a natural evaluator.  I'm too impatient and just want to get on with the next project.  But the more we do as a company the more importance I place on evaluation.  And looking back we've actually been quite good at it.  Every year every I'm a Councillor client Read more…
