CaSE Annual Lecture: We need to talk about Science

We’re excited to welcome Kim Shillinglaw, Chair of CaSE’s new Discovery Decade project, who will share reflections on the public’s relationship with science in the UK, and the urgency of forging a deeper and broader public connection to put research and innovation at the heart of the UK’s future.

Following the lecture, there will be refreshments and an opportunity to continue the discussion with fellow attendees. 

CaSE is thrilled to bring our deferred 2022 Annual Lecture back in person, with this years being held in the amazing Regent Street Cinema. There is also, however, the option to watch a livestream of the lecture if you are unable to attend in person.
