 All,

Oxford University have just uploaded a video of the recent public debate
about open science.

Open Science <http://podcasts.ox.ac.uk/series/open-science>
 In this series of podcasts we consider the impact of opening up science:
allowing both the research community and the public to freely access the
results of scientific work. Individuals can be fully informed about medical
or environmental research, students worldwide can get access to the latest
work, and software agents can roam the vast scientific knowledge base
seeking patterns and correlations that no human has observed. Ultimately,
it may profoundly change the way science is done.

A distinguished group comes together in Oxford's Rhodes House to publicly
debate 'The Scientific Evolution: Open Science and the Future of
Publishing'.

Panelists include Fields Medal winning mathematician Tim Gowers, molecular
biologist and TV personality Lord Robert Winston, and representatives from
publishers Nature and Elsevier. Together they ask "Is there a better way
for scientists to communicate their work?". The event was chaired by
quantum physicist Dr Simon Benjamin, and sponsored by Oxford's Materials
Department.
