Event description

How to change the world (with the help of physics)

Physics teaches how to understand and solve complex problems, yet some young people are put off by misconceived ideas of what physics is. Others are denied the opportunity to study physics due to the prejudice and stereotypes that they experience because of who they are. Hear from inspiring speakers about how physics is the foundation of their career, hosted by the founder of Ada Lovelace Day, Suw Charman-Anderson.
