Good Science Project research culture conference – April 16th
On April 16th, we have our third Good Science Project research culture conference, this year called Failure in Science. It is co-convened by Professor Mary Ryan, our Vice-Provost and Dr Magdalena Skipper, editor of Nature, and will explore the many ways failure is part of the life of science and has aspects that are both personal and institutional. We will be considering the necessity of failure in science, and also the politics and the injustices of failure. Part of the day will include a scripted presentation by six early career researchers.
If you would like to help with this, be involved in writing the script, please contact Stephen Webster direct.
