Presentation :

"Recent debate on the role of human activity in climate change, on the efficacy of the H1N1 vaccine or on renewable energies policy, has brought the concept of scientific uncertainty to the forefront of public and media attention. But this debate has also brought to light the misunderstanding surrounding the concept and the dangers of its possible misappropriation.

Professor Sir Michael Rawlins, Denis Duverne, and Jean-Yves Nau will address these questions and will then open up the discussion to the public."

Panel members :

- Professor Sir Michael Rawlins (National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence – United Kingdom)
