Motor neurone disease, menopause and nutrition are just some of the subjects being covered by women scientists who are taking over Speakers’ Corner in Nottingham to share their knowledge with a series of exciting talks and debate.

Would you share your brain data to save money on insurance? Should employers be able to track your brain data? These are some of the questions researchers from the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ are asking visitors at this year’s Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition in London, as they explore wearable consumer brain scanners.

Using a specially designed 3D printed vacuum system, scientists have developed a way to ‘trap’ dark matter with the aim of detecting domain walls, this will be a significant step forwards in unravelling some of the mysteries of the universe.

Professor Liam Ball has been named winner of the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Hickinbottom Prize in recognition of brilliance in research and innovation.
