Gresham in the North

Stylised blue-green photos of a monk, a pixellated dog, a close-up spore, a person on a hill, a toy robot and a banana wrapped in chains

Presented in Durham, this series by three Gresham Professors explores ideas that shape our world and our future. The lectures examine the transformative power of mathematical algorithms, the hidden environmental and health impacts of global travel, and the emerging possibilities and ethical challenges of future medicine. Together, they demonstrate how advances in mathematics, science and technology influence everyday life, encouraging audiences to think critically about innovation, sustainability and the choices that will shape a healthier and more resilient future.
