Quentin Cooper looks into the role of government departmental Chief Scientific Advisers, the use of animals in research, and a 400-million-year-old forest.
Quentin Cooper hears the outcome of the House of Lords review into the role of the government's departmental Chief Scientific Advisers from the chair of the committee, Lord Krebs. There is news of progress towards refining, reducing and replacing the use of animals in scientific experiments. And we take a walk in the forest - the oldest forest ever discovered, home to strange plant ancestors nearly 400 million years ago.
Producer: Martin Redfern.
