UK Science and Brexit
Brexit has loomed large in UK science policy discussions from early 2016. Recent thinking and views in March 2017 are reflected in:
- An Editorial from James Wilsdon in Science magazine (DOI: 10.1126/science.aan2673). James is now Professor of Research Policy at the Unviersity of Sheffield.
- An adjournment debate in the UK House of Lords, introduced by the Earl of Selborne, focused on the second of two reports in 2016 from the HoL Select Committee on Science and Technology. The first in April 2016 was EU Membership and UK Science. The second, published in December 2016, was A Time for Boldness: EU Membership and UK Science after the Referendum
