Once heavy-quark corrections are take into account \nu p elastic scattering provides a complementary probe of polarized strangeness in the nucleon to measurements from inclusive and semi-inclusive polarized deep inelastic scattering. We review the different types of experiment and a recent NLO calculation of heavy-quark contributions to the weak neutral-current axial-charge (measurable in \nu p elastic scattering) performed using Witten's heavy-quark renormalization group method.
