“The time is right for Nottingham to take forward its ambitions as an international location for science. The Science City project has brought together all of the key players in Nottingham, and we are working together to deliver that ambition for the city and the region.”
Professor Neil Gorman, Vice Chancellor of Nottingham Trent University and Chair of Nottingham Science City Board.
Nottingham has earned its Science City status against a backdrop of more than two centuries of impressive scientific developments and inventions. It was within this city, for example, that the safe painkiller ibuprofen and the life-saving MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scanner were born. Today we have new boundaries being broken every day within our two leading universities. Tomorrow promises to harvest the fruits of yet more of the city’s skills, knowledge and creativity – and its people’s determination to make the world a better place.
