Question: What do you think would be the best thing that could happen to science?

Joanna Watson answered on 15 Jun 2010:

I think the best thing that could happen to science is if everyone knew just a little bit more about it. If politicians and business people (and everyone else) knew a bit more about science then the research that scientists do – not just about cancer, but about the environment and other things too – could make an even bigger difference in the real world.
