Location: Wheatsheaf Hotel

From the pain pathways in our bodies to the future of water security and green hydrogen, this event dives into the science shaping our health, environment, and energy future. Join us for a fascinating evening exploring how cutting-edge research is tackling some of the biggest challenges of our time!

Water security in a changing climate

Dr Declan Page (Principal Scientist, CSIRO)

Australia is a land of drought and flooding rains; many of our regions continue to struggle with both. Regions experiencing a drying climate and expecting further population growth will need a variety of water strategies to manage sustainably into the future.

Ouch! The Anatomy of Pain

Prof. Rainer Haberberger (Professor, University of Adelaide)

Which parts of our body allow and which parts control our perception of pain? The talk will take you on a journey that starts in tiny nerves in your joints or skin and ends in a particular spot at the outer margins of your brain.

(Green) Hydrogen – why and for what.

Prof Gunther Anderson (Professor, Flinders University)

(Green) Hydrogen is in the news, but how can we make it and how well can it meet expectations? Do we need it? If so, for what? This talk will take you through the essentials we all need to know in this field.
