      It’s a very good idea. YouTube is full of great people sharing and teaching. I’ve learnt a lot about cooking watching YouTube videos!

      It is a good idea but it can be very hard without the experience to do it…I would first start by doing some outreach in local schools and encouraging the general public to participate in my public engagement lectures…every year i have around 50-100 people and about 1000 children participating in my events held annually at the university of Aberdeen. It’s a nice idea and I will see how I can take it ahead 😀 thank you

      Ummm… I find youtube helpful but I think I’m too shy to start my own channel

      because my research is done in collaboration with major pharmaceutical companies I am not allowed to share my findings until they are published

    A lot of what we do in contract research is confidential so I would be unable to do this sort of thing until the drugs have been fully patented and legally protected. Great idea though as Youtube is a very popular media and reaches a wider audience.
