    Past Perspectives: How can premodern environmental research be made useful in the climate emergency?

    Impact Workshop, Monday May 27, 2024 Funded by the Royal Society of Edinburgh

    The human species has forever been adapting to dynamic environmental conditions. The premodern world provides a laboratory of various experiments in human-environment interactions: a rich history of successes and failures, acute and chronic pressures, false-starts and path dependencies, resilience and vulnerabilities---all operating on a global scale over the longue durée. How should we collate,...

    Public Lecture: Far-Ultraviolet lighting to prevent the airborne spread of disease

    Free

    For over a hundred years, the germicidal properties of UV light and its role in suppressing transmission of airborne diseases have been known, but because of safety concerns, the installation of mercury-based UV lighting with wavelengths around 254nm has not been widely adopted. Recently, it has been proposed that UV light with wavelengths around...
