We discuss the tricky job of being the New Zealand Prime Minister's Chief Science Advisor with Prof. Juliet Gerrard. Join our scigest hosts Andrew, Jessica and Blue as they escape the lab to interview one of our leading lights in science in her office. We will hear her thoughts on the role after six months, including how it can help governments address some of the big issues facing New Zealand. Discussion topics also span science trust, gender equality and encouraging minorities into science.
