Policy Fellows
The CSaP Policy Fellows Programme was launched in May 2010. The Programme is intended to provide an insight into the role which the sciences and engineering can play in the formulation of public policy. Fellowships are primarily intended for civil servants, elected officials and others directly involved in public policy. No minimum or maximum level of seniority is stipulated, but different programmes will be designed for those already experienced in policy making and holding senior positions, or for those at an earlier stage in their careers but with an interest in developing particular expertise or connections. Similarly, Policy Fellows may or may not have a background in science and engineering, and the programmes will be designed to reflect this.

Dr Jo Dally
GO-Science: "Spending time with the Centre provided me with an excellent perspective on the expertise and research that Cambridge has at its fingertips. I found my meetings with members of the university to be both interesting and informative, and my colleagues and I have already followed up with several people having identified clear linkages between our areas of work... I look forward to engaging further with the Centre." (June 2010)

Ms Alice Raine
Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS): "Everyone has been so interesting... I have enjoyed hearing about lots of different research projects across a number of different university departments... The Centre is a welcome stepping stone for people like me who couldn't possibly know all of the expertise available in the Cambridge area, and I feel very lucky to have been approached to take part in this scheme." (June 2010)

Ms Lucia Costanzo
Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS): "I found the time I spent with CSaP immensely valuable. It gave me the opportunity to gain in-depth exposure to the University and its engagement with the wider science community. It also allowed me to gain a clearer picture of how the EU research agenda impacts on researchers at Cambridge - providing real insights that will inform my ongoing policy work." (May 2010)

Mr Michael Eaton
Welsh Assembly Government: "I found the planned week to be very useful, timely, enjoyable and informative, enabling me to firmly engage on the policy and delivery topics that are most pressing in my area. Gaining an understanding of areas of scientific, technological and organisational behaviour work taking place across the University - and the individuals involved - will have a real bearing on my next steps over the coming year." (May 2010)
