A key time for UK-Europe science

The opening line of a recent Financial Times article put it best: "Relations between the UK and EU badly need a reset." Although the article was mostly about geopolitics, the disconnect also applies to science and the current uncertainty about whether the UK will remain an associated partner in European Union (EU) research programs such as Horizon Europe. In the post-Brexit era, and with a new UK Prime Minister to be named shortly, the UK and EU should be considering how best to maximize the potential of the numerous brilliant scientists, technicians, academics, and clinicians working in the universities and research institutes of all European countries, including the UK.
