Electronics

Electronics in Scotland is a vibrant and dynamic industry, and a significant contributor to the Scottish economy. It also offers exciting career opportunities for recent graduates in engineering, maths and physics.

Imaging

There is nothing more compelling than a visual image and it is no coincidence that the most massive processing system in the human brain is the visual cortex.

Energy

Energy policies and solutions for the future must meet the needs of a global population that continues to make increasing demands on diminishing energy resources, whilst seeking to limit environmental impact

Proteins

This issue of Science Scotland, a showcase for Scotland’s scientific creative talent, illustrates well how the contest to sequence the human genome was a race to a starting line, not to a finishing post.

Physics

Scottish research is going from strength to strength. Innovative ideas are flourishing here, supported by initiatives like the Proof of Concept Fund, Enterprise Fellowships from Scottish Enterprise/RSE and the Scottish Coinvestment fund. The energies of highly skilled scientists who are the future of our research base and in turn, our economy, are being nurtured and harnessed.

The best of Scottish Science and Technology

Science in Scotland is built on firm foundations, with many world-changing discoveries and inventions having been made by Scots. Today, our universities and research institutions continue on this path of excellence
