DESCRIPTION:We invite you to attend a conference titled: The Role of Acade
 mia in Misinformation. The aim of the conference is to bring all the multi
 disciplinary expertise existing in Cambridge re. Misinformation and Pseudo
 science together to emphasise the range of inspiring research and outreach
  efforts happening within Cambridge. From health to climate change\, from 
 data science and technology to the psychological and social underpinnings 
 of what might make people susceptible to bias and misinformation. In addit
 ion\, and most importantly perhaps\, the conference will address questions
  such as: What can we\, as the Cambridge academic community\, do to enhanc
 e valuable knowledge exchange between various research and outreach effort
 s occurring across the university in a more established manner? How can we
  best equip researchers with the tools to contribute to the goal of opposi
 ng this problem within their everyday research? Are there ways in which th
 e culture of academia may be hindering the goal of addressing this issue\,
  and how could we motivate or create necessary critical introspection to i
 dentify these?\n\nPlenary speakers include Sir. Prof. David Spiegelhalter\
 , Prof. Sander van der Linden\, Prof. Hasok Chang\, Prof. Giles Yeo\, Dr. 
 Roland Roberts and Prof. Andreas Vlachos.\n\n*Further Details:*\n\nThe str
