We’ve been busy since May 2015, writing articles for newspapers, blogs and wherever we can get a platform for raising the case of science and technology in this EU membership referendum.
Please see below for links to our articles as well as a link to our submission to the House of Lords Select Committee in response to their call for evidence on the relationship between EU membership and UK science and technology.
We will aim to add a broader range of references in future, covering other articles related to science and EU membership.
