We have been contacted by Mara Media in Glasgow, who are currently developing a programme with BBC Scotland, with the working title The New Scottish Explorers. 

The BBC intends for the programme to feature people of Scottish descent who are involved in ground-breaking scientific research around the world, in the hope that it will inspire the next generation of Scots to consider careers in science. The programme will also feature the institution that the person is working for, and the producers are keen to ensure that the programme is not nationalistic in any way.

If you are a Scottish post grad, post doc or research fellow who would be interested in being featured on the programme please contact Simon Williams at simon@maramedia.co.uk. Please forward this info on to anybody who you think might be interested.
