Abstract

The British Association (BA) Festival of Science is a special opportunity for any member of the public interested in science to meet together with scientists and discuss as well as review science and its achievements. One such opportunity arose when the turn of the northwest of England came to host the Annual BA Festival of Science at the University of Liverpool in September 2008. A session of synchrotron radiation science reviewing the contributions of the SRS as well as a look to the future was held. A review of accelerator science was given by Mike Poole, Director of ASTeC at STFC. John Helliwell, Professor of Structural Chemistry at Manchester University, reviewed biology and medicine; Bob Cernik, Professor of Materials Science at Manchester University, reviewed materials science; and Tracy Turner, of the Photon Science Department of STFC, reviewed future light sources.
