The EMCR Forum has released a consultation draft of a discussion paper on interactions between academia and industry. It gives an overview of some of the similarities and differences between how science is done in academia, the private sector, government organisations and elsewhere.

LIFE in Perth will explore the science behind life’s beginnings; the use of artificial wombs; extending life and improving health through genetic modification; and the ethical and regulatory challenges posed by the emergence and use of these new techniques and technologies. The fourth event in Academy’s travelling ‘life & death’ public speaker series will be held at 6pm on Thursday 10 November at Perth Town Hall. Book your tickets today and bring along your friends and family.
