Lesser spotted Nobel laureate with ... interesting current scientific views glimpsed in the wild!

This analysis workshop led by my colleague and fellow ABSW board member and The Times and The Sunday Times science editor Tom Whipple is likely to sell out fast. Grab your seat while you can: absw.org.uk/events/analysi…

It’s a brilliant epic!
