Wellcome Trust

In a world of Twitter, Facebook and MySpace there is still no substitute for an intelligent and spirited face-to-face debate. The Battle of Ideas provides a perfect platform to explore the many challenges presented by new scientific discoveries. The Wellcome Trust looks forward to another lively year of debate at the Battle of Ideas festival.
