Do sciences need art? I think so.
A conversation with the director of the world famous Hunterian Museum in London to discuss the importance of the museum to scientific discovery and her opinions on the importance of art in education, especially science. Sponsored by the physiological Society.
‘Theres no question you can understand medicine without ……. art.’
In this episode we discuss the importance of art in education, what it takes to win the ‘Astronomy Photographer of the Year’ award, and the importance of other non-scientific subjects when learning science.
in this episode I meet with Yasmin Crawford an award-winning photographer who was once a full-time scientist, the skills she had that helped her run a business and her thoughts on how different the disciplines of science and art really are, discussing her interpretation of what she calls the grey space.
In this episode I meet with Jo Le Gleud, one half of the award-winning interior design company Maddox Creative. We describe the skills Jo has felt have made her business successful, but also how science and scientific thinking has helped that.
In this final episode I meet with Prof Ole Petersen, CBE FRS, and we discuss in detail both scientific philosophy and what it takes to make a good scientist. Does art give you the capabilities to think outside the box?
