The Vega Science Trust started recording video interviews with scientists and Nobel Laureates in the late 90`s. It is our aim not only to provide an outlet for the research and the views of scientists but to provide an archive for the future of some of our greatest scientists.
These interviews have either been recorded as in-depth Face to Face interviews over an extended period of time or as shorter interviews recorded at the Lindau meeting of Nobel Laureates (described below).
Each year some thirty or more Nobel laureates come to Lindau to give lectures and interact with about 1000 young scientists from around the world. In any one year the focus is generally on one area eg. chemistry, physics, medicine or economics. The informal relaxed atmosphere enables the students to engage the scientists in informed and open-minded interaction. This unique formula attracts many representatives of the media and so encourages a dialogue between the scientific community and the public so contributing effectively to the general understanding of science and technology.
