Video games and science

Do video games hold the solutions to our most complex scientific problems? Gamers can manipulate 3D shaped proteins to fix real scientific problems; online games seek to improve the health of type 2 diabetic patients; and astronomers are using gaming technology to predict complex star systems. Journalist and broadcaster Dara Mohammadi will be joined by Steven Armstrong, medical journalist; Dr Erinma Ochu, Lecturer in Science Communication & Future Media; and Simon Parkin, journalist and author.
