We often shine the spotlight on the advisors whose high-profile work comes at the end of the science advice process, and on the academics whose research it's based on. But there is a third important actor in this process, often working informally, sometimes moving in the shadows – the faceless bureaucrat or administrator. Alessandro Allegra dedicat…

People are forever saying that science advice should not just be about the natural sciences, but also about the social sciences, humanities and arts.

There are many different ways to make policies, and many different ways for science and evidence to impact on those policies.

Politicians don't really have a great understanding of the citizens they serve, according to Michael Bang Petersen.
