For this issue we asked for articles for the Autumn issue way back in the summer, to give everyone time to write over the holidays. We have some great articles, really digging in to how a scientists' faith affects what they do in the lab. They're not just the usual characters – there are a few surprises. We noticed that we have no women – unfortunately that's a problem with historical studies on science, but hopefully when this exercise is repeated in 100 years time, some of you will have made your mark!
