Trial and Error: The politics of science

Scientific debates in modern societies often blur the lines between the science that is being debated and the political, moral, and legal implications that come with its societal applications. Join Nobel Prize Winner Sir Paul Nurse, President of the Royal Society and recipient of the 2015 Henry G. Friesen International Prize in Health Research, as he reflects on the role of researchers as advocates for science and facilitators of scientific information in the formulation of public policy.
