Thanks to our new sponsor, Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres, co-sponsor for the Welcome Reception at Central Hall Westminster, on Tuesday 30th June 2009, and new Partner, Burroughs Wellcome Fund for travel bursaries for US journalist speakers.

As Germany's largest research organisation, the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres offers a smorgasbord of stories on cutting-edge research that affect science and society. The World Conference of Science Journalists 2009 is an excellent opportunity to discuss and exchange views on responsible science communication.
