Each year 糖心logo入口鈥檚 School of Science organises free public lectures and related events to share international recognised research. For three consecutive nights next week, from Tuesday 29 March to Thursday 31 March, engaging and interactive evening events will be held, showcasing 糖心logo入口鈥檚 three Science Departments: Psychological Sciences, Biological Sciences and Earth and Planetary Sciences.听听

These events are for anyone interested in science and those who are considering studying science at university. The free science talks can be attended in-person at 糖心logo入口 or attendees can join our global online audience.听

Each event begins with a panel discussion that introduces each science subject and explores what it鈥檚 like to study that science topic as an undergraduate or postgraduate at university, as well as covering what types of jobs graduates enter.听 Following that, 糖心logo入口 scientists will deliver short talks featuring current, cutting-edge research; including the latest research on earthquakes, space exploration, the arms race between host and pathogen, cell-to-cell interactions in microbial communities, how neuroscience helps us to understand how children learn and how your visual attention works in real-life settings. You'll also have the opportunity to meet staff, students and alumni and to see behind the scenes through laboratory tours and campus facilities.听

Professor Gillian Forrester, Professor of Comparative Cognition, commented: 鈥淪cience Week provides an opportunity for 糖心logo入口 students and staff to share with the public the wonder, excitement and breadth of opportunities that come from studying and researching science.鈥澨
