Inside Science is a news service run through the American Institute of Physics' News Services Division which reports scientific breakthroughs. Inside Science “produce[s] breaking news stories, features, essays, op-eds, documentaries, animations, and news videos,” and “aim[s] to thoroughly explore and accurately capture the search for discovery around the world -- to expose both the small corners and the broad vistas of the modern scientific landscape” (taken from https://www.insidescience.org/about).
This collection contains the viewers and master tapes for Discoveries and Breakthroughs Inside Science (DBIS) which cover a wide variety of subjects, with titles such as “Cucumbers Combat Cholesterol,” “Brain Tumor Breakthrough,” “Visualizing Addiction,” and “Uncovering Mysteries in Space.” The reports involve breakthroughs and discoveries in science and are often designed to inform all viewers, not only those with scientific knowledge. They are preserved on small and large beta tapes, and one cassette tape.
