Personal podcast of Radu Sporea, who is Royal Academy of Engineering Academic Research Fellow at the Advanced Technology Institute (ATI), University of Surrey. The rationale behind the podcasts is to give an insight into science and engineering through the eyes of young researchers. There are interviews with PhD students, early career researchers and young engineers who share their views on their subject, as well as their experience of life in academia, and the opportunities and the challenges of an academic career in the sciences. The podcast is also available on iTunes.

On-demand streaming platform for educational institutions featuring over 26,000 films from leading producers including PBS, BBC, the Criterion Collection, First Run Features, Media Education Foundation, but also many other smaller, niche producers. The site offers both a platform from which to stream films as well as providing a video hosting service. A full range of academic subjects is covered and many of the films, programmes and clips are not otherwise available on DVD. The site also features detailed analytics so that librarians can more easily assess how the site is being used by students. Subscription is based on paying only for the films which students and institutions actually watch.

The Science Gallery is a public science centre at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland. Opened in 2008 and housed in Trinity’s Naughton Institute, it holds exhibitions and lectures with a view to science outreach and art-science collaborations. Unlike most science centres, it has no permanent collection, but rather a series of 4-6 temporary exhibitions each year. The Video section of the website hosts video podcasts of recent events including the performance artist ORLAN talking about the future of the human body, and a debate by leading scientists on the ethics of synthetic biology. The podcast section offers a small number of audio podcasts on a wide range of topics including neuroscience, the portrayal of scientists in movies and the relationship between technology, business and art,
