SUMMARY:Stories of Ageing / New Discoveries from the Cole Library
DESCRIPTION:Collections Research Network: Stories of Ageing / New Discoveries from the Cole Library \n \nA book collector and bibliophile from his schooldays until his death\, Francis Joseph Cole (1872-1959) amassed a huge library of around 8000 volumes of books and scientific papers\, from earliest times to the present day. As Professor of Zoology at the University of Reading\, Cole founded the Cole Museum of Zoology and used his magnificent library of works on the history of early medicine\, zoology\, comparative anatomy and reproductive physiology for teaching and research. \nThree hundred significant titles have now been made available for the first time\, thanks to funding for cataloguing from the Collections Project. These include works by Hunter\, Perrault and Severino and can be viewed in a pop-up exhibition at Special Collections\, on Wednesday 4 March\, 2-4 pm. \nWe will be joined by Andrew Mangham and Kate Mattacks to tell us about their Stories of Ageing: Patient Experience and Patient Care project\, with a talk and a workshop.

SUMMARY:Women in Sport: Overcoming and Succeeding
DESCRIPTION:Edith Morley Lecture 2020 – guest panel discussion \nTo mark International Women’s Day\, we are delighted to present this annual event in memory of Edith Morley\, with a panel discussion bringing together female innovators and game-changers from the sporting world. Historically\, sports have been a male dominated arena with very low numbers of women involved. Today\, the number of female athletes are rising significantly\, yet\, women’s sports are highly underrepresented in the media\, and female athletes earn considerably less than their male counterparts. \nA guest panel will cover a wide range of topics including how these remarkable sportswomen have overcome barriers and gone onto achieve great success in their fields. The panel includes Fara Williams\, Reading FC Women and England player\, Kelly Chambers\, Director of Women’s and Girls Football\, Reading FC Women\, Cath Bishop\, Olympic Rower\, and Alice Kirkup\, Captain of the University of Reading’s netball first team. \nAdmission free.

SUMMARY:Biscuits to Big Tech: Reading's rise to economic prosperity
DESCRIPTION:University Public Lecture Series \nProfessor Kathy Pain (Real Estate and Planning): Biscuits to Big Tech: Reading’s rise to economic prosperity \nReading was once a sleepy county town famed for its ‘beer\, biscuits and bulbs’ but today it is a hub for high-tech industry with international links. How did it get that way and how can we make sure its economic success continues? \nIn this lecture\, Professor Kathy Pain will explore the town’s rise to prosperity and the future sustainability problems facing densely developed urban regions like Reading. She will draw on her research which shows how investing in so-called ‘good density’ – well-designed and compact cities with affordable public transport; available jobs and talent; and ‘green and blue infrastructure’ such as hedgerows and waterways – could help secure Reading’s future success in a changing economic landscape. \nKathy Pain is Professor of Real Estate Development at the University of Reading\, Henley Business School. Her research focuses on sustainable city and regional development\, governance and planning in today’s interconnected world economy. \nAdmission free. Booking advisable.
