SUMMARY:Public Lecture: Albert Wolters Lecture 2019
DESCRIPTION:Delivered by Professor Daniel C. Dennett\, Center for Cognitive Studies\, Tufts University \nAutonomy is a fancy word for self-control. It comes in degrees\, and while some varieties can be largely the achievement of unconscious control—for instance\, the abilities to stand\, walk\, run and avoid obstacles—the morally important varieties require consciousness: you can’t make a promise or be “moved by reasons” without the ability to entertain alternatives\, think about both the past and the future\, and make informed decisions under uncertainty. We are not born with these abilities and achieving the level of autonomy of a morally responsible agent takes years of experience and maturation. This self-control is the only variety of free will worth wanting\, and it has nothing to do with whether physics is deterministic or not. A thought experiment about emancipating a drone\, making it more and more autonomous\, reveals the outlines of the role of language and consciousness in making us the sorts of things that can be trusted to keep a promise. \nAdmission free\, booking essential. \n

SUMMARY:That Gut Feeling: We Are Not Alone - Pint of Science
DESCRIPTION:Pint of Science is a worldwide science festival that takes place 20-22 May and brings researchers to your local pub to present their scientific discoveries. \nWe have trillions of bacteria living in our bodies\, together known as the microbiome. From birth\, they play a vital role in keeping our bodies healthy\, in protecting against pathogens and preventing diseases. They are greatly influenced by what we eat and here we will find out how to feed them and what it takes to keep them happy.

SUMMARY:The Heroes and Villains in our Veins - Pint of Science
DESCRIPTION:Pint of Science is a worldwide science festival that takes place 20-22 May and brings researchers to your local pub to present their scientific discoveries. \nWhat are the components that flow through our vessels? What causes the risk of cardiovascular disease? Why is snake venom so dangerous when it gets into our blood? Our speakers will look at some of these questions\, talking about this complex system and how it comes under attack from ‘villains’. We will see how all the components work together to save the day.

SUMMARY:CentAUR\, REF & Funders’ Open Access Policies for Research Publications (Research Staff Development Opportunity)
DESCRIPTION:This session explains to researchers which publications the University requires them to deposit in CentAUR (green Open Access) and how this ensures compliance with both the University’s Open Access policy and the more specific REF and funder Open Access policies. We will also include guidance on how to publish as gold Open Access. The focus is on journal articles. At the end of the session you will be able to comply with the University’s CentAUR Deposit policy\, Open Access policy\, REF 2021 Open Access policy\, funder Open Access requirements\, use tools to find funder and publisher policies\, and apply to the University’s Open Access Fund to cover open access publishing costs.

SUMMARY:Growing Old Gracefully: From Bones to Games - Pint of Science
DESCRIPTION:Pint of Science is a worldwide science festival that takes place 20-22 May and brings researchers to your local pub to present their scientific discoveries.\nGetting older is inevitable\, whether now or 1000 years ago. What happens when we grow old? How does ageing affect our physical and mental health? Is this different from in the past? The bones of our ancestors can be used to determine the life course throughout history. Getting older isn’t too bad nowadays thanks to modern technology\, especially exergames; try your hand at one of these.

SUMMARY:Reading 2050: What is the Future of the Tech Economy in Reading?
DESCRIPTION:Reading has a rich history going back to medieval times and a reputation for change and adaption to economic pressures and technological change. \nLocation and connectivity have been the single most consistent factors in Reading’s economic evolution.  Most reminiscent in Readings economic history is the 3Bs: ‘Beer\, Biscuits\, and Bulbs’ dating back to the 1800s and the industrial revolution. \nMore recently we coined the acronym ‘the 3Is’: IT\, Investment and Insurance. A stark change from the three B’s this is a major transformation from a manufacturing secondary sector economy to a Knowledge based\, tertiary sector economy.  From factories to offices\,  from transporting goods and services by land to transporting deals\, knowledge and information via the internet\, from blue collar  6pm-6pm manual jobs to  white collar 9pm – 5pm and 24 /7 trading. \nEven so the 3Is are evolving  to be more specialist. Energy and life sciences feature widely in our economy.  We are going big scale Microsoft HQ to co working space for entrepreneurs\, we are becoming more niche digi-tech\, fin-tech\, bio-tech nano-tech. \nThis makes for a very interesting future and something we must respond to in planning and regenerating our city especially as the pace of change is becoming more rapid. \nWill place determine our economic landscape or will we simply become a convenient place for the sectors of tomorrow to land and grow?  Can we fuel the future sectors in Reading with people\, places to live and a life style they want? What will the next three letter acronym be to describe Readings economy?  Will it only be three will it be more or less? Does it matter? \nPlease join Nigel Horton-Baker from Reading UK for a lecture: ‘What is the Future of the Tech Economy in Reading?’ \nThe lecture is part of the ‘Economy and Employment’ theme of the Reading 2050 lecture series\, which provide a platform to discuss how Reading should evolve into a smarter and more sustainable city by 2050 (www.reading2050.co.uk ) \nAdmission to the lecture is free. \nThe SBE\, Barton Wilmore and Reading UK\, established the Reading 2050 group in 2013. The Reading 2050 lecture series is structured around three themes\, which underpin the Reading 2050 vision: \n*Place and Environment\n*People and Lifestyle\n*Economy and Employment \nIn 2017\, the School brought together expert speakers to discuss Reading’s heritage and history\, the future of its transport and energy and the impact of climate change and floods. A discussion on Reading’s Art and Culture was facilitated in 2018\, and there are other Reading 2050 events planned for 2019. \n
