Thank you for supporting the petition to keep the UK and EU collaborating on science. With your help the petition has been supported by over 5,500 people across all Member States and continues to grow steadily.

But, with less than a month until the UK might leave the EU, and still so much uncertainty, we are stepping up our efforts to ensure that the petition has the impact needed to protect science.

Today we are talking about the risk of no deal and the importance of a science deal on social media using this downloadable GIF - we.tl/t-oXzu6vsmOG. This is to coincide with a two-day summit of EU leaders, to be followed by an unprecedented Saturday sitting of the UK Parliament.

Please share this message within your networks and on social media to encourage support for the petition so that, whatever happens with Brexit, the European research community is ready to respond swiftly and strongly.

Many thanks once again for your continued support.
