蘑菇视频 and Professor Mark Miodownik invite you to "See Stuff Differently".

The world is changing fast, and materials science is more important than you think. It's everywhere in how we do things, why we do things, and how we see the world. In this panel discussion, we gather some of the UK's brightest minds to see if they can See Buildings Differently.

The building and construction sector, by some estimates, . Meanwhile, cities face increased strain from growing urban populations and rising temperatures, and more and more – not less – built infrastructure will be required in the years ahead. Could the solutions lie in rethinking what our buildings are made from? From self-healing concrete to radiation-resistant glass, scientists are creating innovative new materials to build cities that work for people and the planet.

Speakers:

• – Lecturer in Civil Engineering Materials, School of Civil Engineering, University of Leeds
• – Royal Society Career Development Fellow, Department of Materials, Design and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Liverpool
• – Professor of Infrastructure Materials and Director of the Centre for Climate Adaptation and Environment Research, University of Bath
• – Professor of Materials & Society, University College London, Royal Society Professor for Public Engagement in Science

See Stuff Differently

See Stuff Differently is a programme that invites you to discover the materials that shape our everyday lives and explore their impact on people and the planet. As part of Professor Mark Miodownik's Professorship for Public Engagement in Science, the programme brings together materials scientists from across the UK to spark conversations, foster curiosity and encourage new ways of thinking about the material world around us.
