The Winton Centre for Risk and Evidence Communication aims to ensure that facts on important issues are presented in ways that are accurate, transparent and relevant

On 30 September, the Department of Physics will host the second annual Winton Symposium at the Cavendish Laboratory on ‘Materials Discovery’.

Understanding how the numbers add up in relation to risk can help us deal with our own uncertainty, as David Spiegelhalter, Winton Professor for the Public Understanding of Risk, explains.

Funded by a £20 million donation from David Harding, the Winton Programme for the Physics of Sustainability aims to address some of the major challenges affecting the modern world.
