Pupils see how science works
PUPILS have gone behind the scenes at city firms to see how science is used in business.
The "Open Doors" event was part of the Scottish Government's "Do something creative. Do science" campaign.
Chief scientific adviser for Scotland, Professor Anne Glover, said: "We hope by giving young people the chance to experience what it is like to be a sound technician, a zoo-keeper, an astronomer, a researcher or an inventor first-hand, they will get to see that by continuing to study science they can lay the foundations for a rewarding career."
