Why Culture Needs Science: Evidence, Expertise and the Public Value of DCMS
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport sits at the heart of some of the most important questions facing contemporary society: how culture, media, sport, heritage, tourism and civil society contribute to economic growth, individual and community wellbeing, social cohesion, national identity and democratic resilience. But what does it mean for such a department to have a Chief Scientific Adviser?
In this Annual Lecture, Professor Tom Crick MBE, Chief Scientific Adviser at DCMS, will reflect on the role of science, research and expert advice in shaping policy across the department鈥檚 unusually broad portfolio. He will discuss how DCMS is strengthening its evidence base through its major R&D Programme, the College of Experts, and flagship analytical work such as the Culture and Heritage Capital Programme. The lecture will focus in particular on the department鈥檚 refreshed Areas of Research Interest, setting out the major research questions and evidence needs where DCMS is seeking deeper engagement with academic, sectoral and interdisciplinary expertise.

The lecture will explore what a more mature relationship between cultural policy and research might look like: one capable not only of informing individual decisions, but also of helping government understand, evidence and act on the wider public value of culture, creativity, media and civic life in a period of rapid technological, social and economic change.

Professor Tom Crick MBE is to the UK Government鈥檚 Department for Culture, Media and Sport, where he provides strategic leadership on science, research, and evidence-informed policy across sectors including culture, creative industries, media, sport, and civil society. He is at the University of Bristol, with an interdisciplinary research and policy portfolio spanning AI, data governance, digital skills, and the role of technology in society, particularly across culture, creativity and the information ecosystem.

Tom has extensive experience at the research鈥損olicy鈥損ractice interface, including senior leadership roles in academia and public bodies. His work has shaped national approaches to STEM education, AI governance, and digital innovation, with a particular focus on public value, place-based growth, and responsible and inclusive technology adoption. He currently serves on a number of national and international advisory bodies, and is a non-executive director in the utilities sector. He was previously Deputy Pro-Vice-Chancellor at Swansea University, where he led civic mission and supported research and innovation strategy. He was appointed MBE in the 2017 Queen鈥檚 Birthday Honours, and is a Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales and the Academy of Social Sciences.
