Talking of a Brian for the biosciences, that is exactly what I'm after for a potential Channel 4 documentary.  An undiscovered Brian-type with a leaning towards genetics would be perfect, but I'm open to any suggestions at this stage! S/he must be out there somewhere...

If anyone springs to mind, let me know.

Best wishes,

Nicola

I was in Waterstone’s this weekend and, looking through ‘Wonders of the Solar System’, it left me wondering whether there’ll be a surge of girls taking Physics in the next year or so! I can’t recall other post-TV science books having so many pictures of the programme’s presenter (over 20).

Oh, to have a Brian for the biosciences ….
