David Shukman leaves as BBC Science Editor later this year, swerving a move to the proposed BBC News Climate & Science Centre Of Excellence in Cardiff.
David, 63 (Eton and BA Geography, Hatfield, Durham) was the first in the role, appointed in 2012 against a field thought to include Newsnight science editor Susan Watts, then BBC environment correspondent Richard Black, BBC medical correspondent Fergus Walsh and producer and presenter Michael Mosley. He joined the BBC as a News Trainee in 1983, from the Coventry Evening Telegraph.
