The Media Fellowships aim to give scientists and their colleagues, the confidence and willingness to engage with the media and tackle issues of mistrust and misrepresentation and to give journalists access to new scientific expertise.
The scheme reflects the British Science Association's commitment to increasing the accessibility of the sciences and providing opportunities for discussion and debate.
The scheme has had impacts on Fellows, media hosts and scientific institutions since 1987, when it first started.
The Media Fellowship scheme is the only one of its kind in the UK.
