The Nature of Religion, Science and Health. (360G-Wellcome-104341_Z_14_Z)

£4,980

A major academic event that will discuss the links between religion, science and health, from medieval times to the present day. Built around keynote addresses presented by four leading historians of science, medicine and health, the event will also involve a panel of influential respondents drawn from academia and religion to debate the points made in the keynote addresses. The event, which will be organised at the Theatre Royal in York and/or the York Minster, will then involve a detailed roun d-table discussion, and general question and answer session. These discussions will be chaired by major public figures (the University is currently in discussion with Melvyn Bragg, Jeremy Paxman and Rowan Williams to join the programme). This two day event will also be made a part of the York Festival of Ideas so that a very serious public engagement activity gets included and to ensure that the audience is large.
