The Wellcome Trust has recently completed a project directed by Professor Tilli Tansey and Professor Leslie Iversen, to record video-interviews with 12 eminent neuroscientists in the fields of neuro-imaging (Frackowiak, Jones, Mansfield, Ordidge), psychiatry/psychology (Frith, Gregory, Rutter, Warrington), and neuropharmacology (Burnstock, Moncada, North, Silver). The interviews were conducted by Mr Richard Thomas, with the aim of providing resources for the use of present and future historians, as well as journalists, policy makers and others.
Sections of the interviews, both video and audio are freely available at http://www.ucl.ac.uk/histmed/audio/neuroscience via YouTube and i-TunesU. All of the transcripts are also freely available to download, and can be used in lecturing, outreach and other activities. A limited number of copies of the interviews on DVD are available for teaching purposes from Professor Tilli Tansey upon request.
