    Mods- I think this is an appropriate home for this- but feel free to move it if you feel it would be more appropriate elsewhere.

    Can you spare 20 minutes for a science communication project at DCU? If you can, read on....

    Do you want the chance to express your thoughts and feelings about controversial new technologies before new products are developed? Then visit "Your Science Your Say", an installation at the Science Gallery, in Pearse Street, Dublin. You can watch 3-minute videos of scientists explaining their work and its relevance to society, then you get a chance to record a video response.

    If you can't make it to the Science Gallery, then you can look at the videos
    on www.yourscienceyoursay.com and leave your comments, or follow the link
    to YouTube to record a video response.

    The project is sponsored by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) who
    will use the responses to find out how the public respond to new advances
    in technology. This will help policy-makers and regulators to decide on future
    Irish science policy.

    We'd really like to get as many responses as possible, it would be great
    if you could call into the Science Gallery or leave a comment or video reply
    on the website.
