Professor Danielle George is an engineer with a passion for inspiring the next generation of scientists. She has dedicated her career to coming up with successful ways to include young people in the big questions society faces.
One way that she has done this is through the development of a Robot Orchestra, a project with school groups in and around Manchester where young people design, build and code robots that can perform music.
At this lecture, hear the Robot Orchestra play and find out how 'thinkering' could lead to a brighter future for us all.
This event is the 2018 Michael Faraday Prize and Lecture, which is awarded to a practicing scientist or engineering who demonstrates excellence in the field of scientific public engagement.
