Japanese technology is among the best in the world. Yet
Japanese scientists have won only a handful of Nobel Prizes. Why are they so good at applying research, yet seemingly so bad at making fundamental discoveries? In the second of two documentaries, Professor Colin Blakemore explores the problems facing scientists in Japan, and considers how they might inject more originality and creativity into their laboratories in the search for a 'big tomorrow'.
