What are the talks?

Regenerative medicine: a biological boost

October 1

How do you create smart materials capable of healing bone, restoring kidney function or reversing the onset of diabetes? Can our own stem cells be used to heal us? Join the discussion with experts within regenerative medicine.

Artificial intelligence: can AI save the world?

October 9

The inclusion of self-learning algorithms into systems that underpin modern life could help us address many of the global challenges society faces. But they also carry risks that may have devastating results. Can Al truly save the world, or is it too risky?

Operating at the boundaries: Diversity of perspective

October 10

We've all heard of diversity, but what does it mean in practice? How can teams in business and research use the idea of diversity to produce better results? In this event, experts in the field of science and philosophy will come together to explore the theme of diversity of perspective covering diversity of people, data, models and mindset. We will use the fields of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning to show the increasing complexity and relevance of having a diverse outlook.

The secret life of science: How science really works and why it matters

November 1

We take the advance of science as given. But how does science really work? Who decides what the public gets to hear about? Are there too few scientists in the world or too many? Jeremy Baumber will answer these questions and more.

Catalysts and chemistry: Building a sustainable future

November 2

With limited access to natural resources, scientists must develop new ways to reduce and reuse what we already have. Join Bert Weckhuysen as he explores how chemistry is being used to create waste-powered transport and why it is so difficult to convert carbon dioxide into fuels and chemicals.
