NWO - British Council Science Seminar Series
'Practical Ethics in Research' The Hague 28-29 October 2004

British Council and NWO organised the second Science Seminar 'Practical Ethics in Research'. The seminar took place in The Hague on 28-29 October 2004 and was organised in the context of the UK-Netherlands Partnership Programme in Science. This collaborative academic research programme was established between the Netherlands and the United Kingdom in 1990 in recognition of the value of international co-operation in academic and scientific research.

The central theme of the seminar was 'Practical Ethics in Research', an important and topical issue in both our countries. Dr Daniel Glaser, Neuroscientist at University College London and Ir Simon Rozendaal, Science Editor for Elsevier were appointed as Chairs. The format of the conference was based on a mixture of plenary sessions and working groups: Day 1 - Ethics in everyday scientific practice, Day 2 - Ethical practice in public engagement.
