Research
CPAS is a world leading research centre that studies the relationship between science and society. We add the social dimension that science and technology need to address global challenges, and for innovations that can shape a just, sustainable and ethical future. Our research studies the way science and technology are made public through their communication and governance, and how society views and interacts with research and innovation.
Our research themes reflect the Centre's cross-disciplinary approach to science communication.
When working with government and industry partners, CPAS researchers often publish formal research reports outside the peer-reviewed literature to enhance their accessibility to stakeholders and publics. They are archived on this page.
The following is a list of some of the Centre for the Public Awareness of Science publications.
CPAS carries out research engagement with partners locally, nationally and internationally.
