Wolfson College Science Society

Science Society logo

The Wolfson College Science Society, founded in the Michaelmas Term 2010, aims to promote science, medicine, technology and engineering research in College.

The Society hosts termly series of lay-friendly talks, which help to contribute to an understanding of how science and technology affect not only the way we live now, but perhaps more importantly, how they will affect our lives in the future.

Talks take place on alternate Fridays in the Old Combination Room, followed by an open discussion and formal hall. Speakers are invited to the dinner, so there are opportunities to continue the discussion over the meal.

Forthcoming seminar talks

Past Talks
