MAIN DIARY ![]() Mon 4 Jul 2022 - 19:30 to 21:00 https://www.wincafesci.org.uk/ Tickets / Register: www.wincafesci.org.uk/ Meeting / Address: Prior Registration Required for Zoom Tickets / Register: www.wincafesci.org.uk/ This event is hosted and arranged by William Vine, the Group Organiser for Winchester Cafe Scientifique. Basingstoke IVC science enthusiasts invite you to this talk on a very interesting subject. The subject of this evenings talk is “Setting course for zero-carbon shipping” delivered by Dr Laurie Wright – Southampton Solent University. WinCafeSci is Online, so if you missed a talk or would like to go over some of it again you can watch here on our YouTube channel. Your participation provides the motivation to continue. Suggestions for future speakers are welcome. Join the Zoom meeting here: https://www.wincafesci.org.uk/ We have recently renewed our Zoom subscription for another 12 months. If you would like to contribute, you can find the link to our virtual sweetie jar below. Thanks. A free Zoom account is great if you want to participate. If that is not for you, you can watch on YouTube Live from your normal browser. SUMMARY Solent University is part of a research and innovation collaboration to look at the options for green technology in the maritime industry. The ultimate goal is the introduction of low-carbon shipping technologies in a very conservative sector. This project will pilot the following:
SPEAKER We will open the meeting from 7:00pm so people can settle in, chat etc. There will be a break between talk and Q&A when people can chat etc. It's not the same as live but closer than I thought We will stream the event on YouTube Live Please bear with us as we adapt to the challenge of broadcasting live events. There may be glitches or poor sound quality.

Basingstoke IVC Science Cafe invite you to this free Royal Institution talk titled "Einstein's revolution: quantum technology for the 21st Century quantum computer" ADVANCE BOOKING IS REQUIRED FOR THIS TALK. Please register for the event via this link: https://www.rigb.org/whats-on/einsteins-revolution-quantum-technology-21st-century-quantum-computer SUMMARY Einstein’s most revolutionary idea, the light quantum, led to the concept for a radical new type of computer. This computer would use the strange rules of quantum mechanics to process information encoded in quantum bits, otherwise known as qubits. In this talk you will find out more about how these large-scale devices may be able to solve important problems that cannot be solved by classical machines. And about some of the formidable scientific and technical obstacles that would need to be overcome, through the use of unprecedented precision to manipulate and interrogate single atoms. SPEAKER David has served terms as Head of School and President of the Australian Institute of Physics. His research expertise in the field of ion beam physics applied to test some of the key functions of a revolutionary quantum computer constructed in silicon in the ARC Centre for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology. In 2020 David received a Royal Society Wolfson Visiting Fellowship to work on new ideas for engineering silicon with single atoms. He is also a Fellow of both the Australian Institute of Physics and the Institute of Physics (UK). This is a livestream event.

Join the Royal Society at their free Summer Science Exhibition to explore the science behind these questions and more. The Royal Society’s annual Summer Science Exhibition (6 - 10 July 2022) returns to central London this summer, offering a free interactive experience for anyone curious about the latest advances in science and technology. Get hands-on with berry-powered solar cells, find out how you could join the hunt for unknown species in your back garden, or meet the scientists designing remote-healing technology. Join us at the weekend to explore our drop-in workshops, or visit during the week to meet the budding scientists at our Young Researcher Zone, where students from the Partnership Grants scheme will be exhibiting their research. Families can explore the exhibition at their own pace during the weekend with workshops for all ages and interests, as well as a dedicated children’s area, child-friendly menu, and buggy parking available. If you are unable to come to London for the event, we will have curated digital content available on demand, including livestream demonstrations and interviews so you can still experience the buzz of the exhibition floor.

Please register for the event via this link: SUMMARY Join David Peña-Guzmán as he explores behavioural and neuroscientific research on animal sleep with philosophical theories of dreaming. From suggestions that many animals run ‘reality simulations’ while asleep to the profound implications for contemporary debates about animal cognition, ethics, and rights. In this talk, discover a convincing case for animals as conscious beings and examine the thorny scientific, philosophical, and ethical questions it raises. SPEAKER David works on historical epistemology, animal studies, phenomenology, feminist theory, bioethics, and critical social theory. His work has appeared in journals such as 'Foucault Studies', 'The Journal of French and Francophone Philosophy', and 'Hypatia'. This is a livestream event.
