(2.15pm-4.15pm Physical Sciences: Chemistry – The Central Science with Dr Christopher Serpell, Reader in Chemistry at the University of Kent. Chemistry is at the heart of all the major challenges in the world today. Climate change, power storage, medicine and packaging are just a few on the list of the questions which come down to chemistry. However, the nature of chemistry is often overshadowed in popular culture by the easy headlines which come from biology and physics. In reality, the lines between sciences are not so clear, but chemistry will have played a role in nearly every new scientific result. This talk will unpack exactly what chemistry is (and isn’t) and explain why it’s central in science, and in meeting the challenges of the future. For details and to book a place ring Tel: 07919978883
