Science Research Council

As a result of the reorganization of the Government's activities in civil science, the Science Research Council came into formal being on 1st April 1965. Although the S.R.C. is only a few months old, many scientists have asked about its role in science, how it will work and what are its lines of demarcation from other Research Councils working in neighbouring fields. What it will ultimately do in the future depends on many factors but at any rate this article will attempt to give a preliminary picture of the 'Council' and what it hopes to accomplish in the near future.
