Transcribe Bentham on the radio!

By Tim Causer, on 1 February 2011

We were recently interviewed about Transcribe Bentham by a reporter from Deutsche Welle World – the German equivalent of the BBC World Service – for their science and technology programme, Spectrum. The programme is in English, and a segment will discuss the project.

We’re pleased to say that this half-hour programme was first broadcast on 1 February 2011, and is now available to listen to at your leisure. So if you would like to put a voice to Transcribe Bentham team members Professor Philip Schofield, Dr Valerie Wallace, and Dr Tim Causer – as well as a number of TB contributors – you can either listen to the whole programme, or just the Transcribe Bentham segment. In both instances, we would recommend downloading the audio as an MP3 rather than streaming it, as the sound quality is noticeably better with the former.

(Thanks to Robin Powell for taking the time to interview us).

    Hi, the link for the ‘whole programme’ is broken. It should direct to:

    Thanks for pointing that out to us, Matt – we’ve now fixed the link.

    All the best,
