The YAE 10-year anniversary seminar series

In 2022 the YAE will turn 10 years old, and in celebration we are organising a seminar series to showcase the diversity of fascinating research within the Academy. Each month we organise a one-hour seminar with three short, accessible talks by YAE members for an interdisciplinary audience; one each from Life Sciences, Physical Sciences and Engineering, and Social Sciences and Humanities. Seminars are virtual, open to all, and filmed for wider dissemination.

Please keep checking our upcoming events for the details and registration of each month’s seminar.

Below is a list of speakers and the links to the recordings. The playlist can be found on your Youtube channel to catch up on lectures if you missed them on the day. You can also see the general introduction to our 10th anniversary seminar series by its organiser and MC Scott Bremer here.
