Science is Vital

With sadness, but pride in what we’ve achieved, it’s time to hang up our protest banners—Science is Vital is officially dissolved. Thanks to everyone who’s helped out over the years, and please keep banging the drum for UK science! scienceisvital.org.uk/2018/10/29/sci…

@johnhbothwell Thanks John!

Last night, @JennyRohn, @Stephen_Curry, @ShaneMcC and I went back to where it all began (the Price Albert pub behind Euston Station) to dissolve @ScienceIsVital. So: itʼs official. Unless someone comes forward to take it over in the next month or so, thatʼs it.

Very proud to have worked with @ScienceIsVital over the years in ensuring that UK science and research receives the political support it needs to thrive #scienceisvital twitter.com/ScienceIsVital…

After a quiet year from Science is Vital, and with heavy hearts, we have decided to move to dissolve the organisation. Read more, and find out about what will likely be our final AGM, here: scienceisvital.org.uk/2018/07/03/sci… #scienceisvital
