Politicians from across Northern Ireland’s political spectrum showed their support for the Prospect Pledge campaign during a lively lunchtime event in the Parliament Buildings at Stormont on 18 March.

Predictive modelling of the biosphere is a long-term goal that could unite Prospect scientists across a range of disciplines, says microbiologist Dave Roberts, who retired from the Natural History Museum in December 2013

Following the successful “Helping and Advising Members at Work” course held in Belfast in December, Prospect has organised further training for Northern Ireland and Isle of Man reps.
