Past Conferences

Almost every year since 1944 there has been an annual conference. This has usually been a one-day event, normally held in London but occasionally elsewhere in England. A few of the conferences have been residential. A number of the conference papers have been subsequently published in the journal Science and Christian Belief, and some of these papers are now available as reprints (four digit numbers).
