SUMMARY:Natural Sciences: A Long Way From Home! Using Interdisciplinary Science To Investigate The Long-Range Transport & Fate Of Polluting Chemicals In The Arctic With Professor Cris Halsall\, Society For Natural Sciences
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n  \nThere are an array of chemicals (certain pesticides\, industrial chemicals etc) that are very persistent in the environment and pose a health risk to humans and wildlife. \nSome of these chemicals can undergo long range environmental transport and end up in very remote regions like the Arctic. \nWith a focus on organofluorine ‘forever’ chemicals Professor Cris Halsall (Director of Natural Sciences at Lancaster University) will explore the interdisciplinary science used to understand this issue as well as improve global chemical-use policy. \nIn this event\, Cris is representing the Society for Natural Sciences\, a national learned society that promotes interdisciplinary science education and research. \n  \nLecturer Profile (Please Click): Professor Cris Halsall \n  \nOur events are designed so that a group of students can take part from a classroom or students and teachers can take part as individuals\, either from school or from home. This means that sessions will continue irrespective of possible school closures. \nAs a live\, participative event\, this session will not be recorded but slides and other resources will be shared after the event\, where available. \n  \n  \nSuitable for: Year 12 and 13 students (and equivalent). This session is designed for students from all backgrounds and interested in how science can tackle humanity’s most urgent challenges. \nPreparation/Pre-Reading: No preparation or pre-reading is required although you may wish to consider the proposed subject area and related questions you might like to ask. \nThe IT Setup: The event will be run on Bluejeans and participants will be able to join using laptops\, tablets\, and mobile devices. If you are joining as a school group\, we recommend connecting with one device and projecting on to a whiteboard. You will be able to interact with the university via a microphone and/or typed comments and questions. Full details will be sent to those who have registered (see below) prior to the event. \nBooking a Place: This is free for schools and colleges. If you would like to take part in this event\, please register your interest using the link to the registration form below: \nRegister Here \n  \n\n
