Festival of Science returns to York

Scientists share their findings at the British Association's Festival of Science

Annual meeting of British Association's Festival of Science, this year hosted by the University of York, where the first Festival was held. International scientists discuss their latest research with a public audience. Topics covered include a proposed seven-point code for all scientists, examining ancient documents with the diamond synchatron that uses focused beams of light as a giant microscope, low-adhesion non-sticky chewing gum, and the security implications of how hard it is to recognise strangers from their photographs.
