Welcome to Science Week!

We are delighted to introduce our third Science Week where we have a range of fascinating talks from both internal and external speakers.

We kick off the week with our fantastic keynote speakers, Professor Steve Ormerod of Cardiff University's School of Biosciences on Monday, followed by Dr Kate Rawles, environmentalist and author of 'The Life Cycle' on Tuesday.

The departmental talks, hosted by colleagues from across our departments, showcase the interesting research taking place in the Faculty, from how we can restore coral reefs to listening difficulties in primary school-aged children.
