      Hello again Jess,

      No I don’t think so.

      Science is about learning, testing ideas, working with people, explaining ideas and results of tests to others. I think what is a little disappointing is if science is seen as distant to the arts, it’s not. One of the greatest ever artists, Leonardo Da Vinci, was also a scientist. His drawings of the human body 15th-16th century helped us to understand the science of it. Science is about collaboration and pushing the boundaries of knowledge, so it is related to and needs the arts and humanities to flourish fully.
