I remember the first time I heard about psci-com – I think it was the launch - which was at a BA meeting in London, and it was definitely a presentation by the Wellcome Trust. If I remember rightly it was also the point at which National Science Week started (was it called ‘SET' followed by the year?), though I may be completely wrong to put the two together. I started here in 1995, so psci-com started after that. And I remember COPUS!

Seconded. While we’re indulging in positive ageism, I’ll just say that I was head of communication at the MRC in 1990 – but that was in another country……..
