Welcome to Ask a Scientist

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

Ask a Scientist is a new site which aims to bring people face to face with real scientists to get them to answer their questions. Anyone over the age of 14 can submit questions via the site, or via twitter and the best will be selected and answered from scientists working from a wide range of fields from all around the UK. But the conversation doesn’t stop there. You can freely comment on the questions posted if you have different opinions from our scientists’, or even if you just want to comment on the answer! For more information on the site, please see the about page.

Use social media? So do we! We’re on Facebook, Twitter and Youtube – so if you like the site, show your support and like us or follow us! You can ask questions via twitter simply by @replying our twitter account, @askascientist – and they’ll be added to our question bank, ready and waiting for our scientists to answer!

Want to know about the people behind the answers? You can find out about them on our authors page.

We hope you enjoy the site, find it useful and contribute your own answers and comments. If you are a teacher or scientist and like what you see and want to get involved yourself, get more details about getting involved.
