FULL EVENT DETAILS

- Professor Sir Liam Donaldson, Chief Medical Officer for England 1998 – 2010
- Professor David Colquhoun, Creator, DC’s Improbable Science, University College London
- Professor Ian Jacobs, Dean of Faculty of Medical and Human Sciences, University of Manchester

The Festival proved to be a resounding success in 2012 and we have taken into account all the feedback we received to make further improvements for this year’s event.
- This year's Festival will start earlier and finish earlier (10.00am – 5.00pm), have improved delegate materials, and we will provide lunch and tea/coffee.
- There will be a small charge for the Festival to take these changes into account but we have kept these low to keep the festival accessible to as many people as possible, with prices starting at £20 for concessions. The rates will be staggered over time so we advise booking early to make the most of the cheapest rates. Please see the website for more information.
