Science on the Hill
What is Science on the Hill?
Science on the Hill is a free programme of events jointly organised by the School of Life Sciences and Warwick Medical School - two departments based out of our Gibbet Hill campus. At each event academics, PhD students and researchers are invited to give short, fun, and informative talks around a theme. We support the evening with light refreshments and plenty of activities and demonstrations in our amazing IBRB building.
Recent events have explored host defences, microbiomes, early life, communication, and stress.
24th February - Our Intrinsic Right to Healthy Food
As our average dietary intake of fresh fruit and vegetables falls further from the recommended NHS guidance of “5 a day”, research at the University of Warwick is seeking to promote the production of high quality, home-grown fresh and healthy food. Come along to find out more about the pressures for change in agriculture, on breeding better crops, keeping them pest free and healthy, and a discussion on whether or not we all have a right to healthy food options.
Doors open at 5:30 pm, talks begin at 6 pm.
How can I sign up to hear about more events in the future?
