Associate Fellows
Associate Fellow is a title designed to recognise the role of a few members of the Centre's Associate Network who have made, and we hope will continue to make, a particular contribution to its objectives and development. The inaugural Fellows are Ben Martin (former Director of Science and Technology Policy Research at the University of Sussex), David MacKay (Professor of Natural Philosophy in the Department of Physics, and Chief Scientific Adviser to the Department of Energy and Climate Change), and David Howarth (Reader in Law in the Department of Land Economy, who returned to the University after deciding not to stand for re-election as MP for the City of Cambridge).

Mr David Howarth
Former MP for Cambridge (2005 - 2010): "Cambridge has always punched well above its weight in terms of its impact on government, and the Centre for Science and Policy - as the successor to the Cambridge University Government Policy Programme - has a key role to play in extending this influence. Together with the other leading Universities, it has a great opportunity not only to promote policy-making on strong evidence-based foundations, but also to educate and develop the next generation of scientific advisers, policy makers, and indeed politicians."

Professor Ben Martin
Professor of Science and Technology Policy Studies, University of Sussex: "With science policy becoming ever more important to our future, the establishment of CSaP is extremely timely. It is uniquely positioned to bring together leading scientists, policy-makers, entrepreneurs and others to consider how more effective policies for science, technology and innovation can be developed and implemented. I look forward to working with CSaP in pursuit of this goal."
