Feed your curiosity at our daytime discussions. Drop in to hear local scientists in conversation about their latest experiments, life in the lab and why science matters to everyone, all in the space of your lunch hour. Bring your sarnies with you to eat while you listen.

We hear by amplifying the sounds that go into our ear. But our ears can be tricked using auditory illusions. Ifat Yasin, Lecturer in Auditory Anatomy and Physiology at UCL Ear Institute, thinks these aural deceptions may hold the key to improving the treatment of hearing impairment. Join her to find out more about the science of perceiving sound.

This event will have live speech to text transcription so that deaf, deafened and hard of hearing visitors can also follow what’s being said. For further information about speech to text, please contact Gemma Hopkins at G.Hopkins@wellcome.ac.uk

This event is FREE. First come, first seated.
