Dear Jo and others

There is a list of science events etc on the psci-com web site at http://www.psci-com.ac.uk/events/.  The list is split into two sections: those aimed at science communication practitioners and those aimed at a general audience.

The list is compiled by the Wellcome Library from a large range of sources and organisations.  It is UK-focused, but also includes major international events.  The list has, in fact, become so long that we are developing a search facility to enable better use to be made of the data.

Best wishes

Louise
