The PSI Ethos
Science should be aware of the wider impact it has on society and should be used to better the lives of all.
Science is not neutral. The questions it asks are subject to political, social and economic pressures which can influence the outcome of scientific endeavour.
Wider engagement with science is vital in order to create an informed public and improve scientific output.
Science transcends cultural and societal boundaries and will always thrive on collaboration between those with diverse backgrounds and views.
