title: Science training for European journalists.
abstract: "Immunology", it was stated recently in a leading European national newspaper, "is a complicated and obscure discipline...that immunologists don't understand much about themselves". Set against this background, Byron Waksman reports on a recent meeting*, which was attended by journalists and scientists from all over Europe, on the attitude of the general public towards science and the need for scientific training among journalists.
